[Verse 1]

Baby, why you not home yet
Baby, it's getting late
I wish you would be home by now
Door bell rings
Just who could it be at this time?
Police on my left and right
My son's not coming home tonight

[Pre-Chorus]

Baby, they don't need to show
It's over, I know
Baby, they don't need to show
Flowers and football tops, I know

[Chorus]

Baby, baby, why you? (x2)

[Verse 2]

No sweeping exits
No Hollywood endings
Flowers and football tops don't mean a thing
My baby is six feet under
Just another number
My daughter without her brother
[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

Baby, baby, baby, my baby
My baby, baby, baby... is gone

[Chorus]

[Outro]

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy, when skies are grey
I hope you noticed, how much I loved you
How could they take my sunshine away
