I've trudged these streets so long
let me tell you why
my little baby's gone
her love used to make me high
like a rose in the springtime
now there's only mud and rain
my little baby's gone
what to do with all this pain
I was your boy-toy 'cos you played around with me
my heart my body are reeling
I bear the scars of 'never good enough for you'
so long, baby, we're through
she used to be my chapel
with an altar far and wide
accepted all my alms
boy, she could make my steeple rise
to the clouds in the springtime
now there's only mud and rain
my little baby's gone
what to do with all this pain
I was your boy-toy 'cos you played around with me
my heart my body are reeling
I bear the scars of 'never good enough for you'
so long, baby, we're through
I was your boy-toy 'cos you played around with me
my heart my body are reeling
I bear the scars of 'never good enough for you'
so long, baby, we're through
I was your boy-toy 'cos you played around with me
my heart my body are reeling
I bear the scars of 'never good enough for you'
so long, baby, we're through
