Lyrics

Well I'm tired and I gotta go home

Expressing fatigue and the need to go home.

I'm tired and I gotta go home

Reiteration of the feeling of tiredness and the urgency to go home.

My baby told me she's gonna set me free

The speaker's partner has informed them about ending the relationship.

If I don't hurry back home

Fear of losing the relationship if not returning home promptly.


So I better be on my way

Acknowledging the necessity to leave.

You know I cannot stay

Stating the inability to stay any longer.

It's been nice you know but I got to go

Expressing gratitude for the time spent but emphasizing the need to depart.

Yes I gotta go home

Reaffirming the imperative to go home.


I left my baby my friend

Leaving behind a loved one and acknowledging their anticipation.

I know she's waiting for me

The speaker believes their partner is patiently waiting for their return.

Don't want to sing the blues, I got too much to lose

Avoiding a melancholic state, as there's too much at stake.

So I guess I better go home

Deciding to go home to prevent potential troubles.


Well I'm tired and I gotta go home

Repeating the fatigue and the urgency to leave for home.

I'm tired and I gotta go home

Reiteration of the need to go home due to the partner's ultimatum.

My baby told me she's gonna set me free

Confirmation of the partner's intention to end the relationship.

If I don't hurry back home

Reemphasizing the risk of losing the relationship if not returning promptly.


So I better be on my way

Acknowledging the necessity to leave once again.

You know I cannot stay

Reiterating the inability to stay any longer.

It's been nice you know but I got to go

Expressing gratitude for the time spent but underlining the need to depart.

Yes I gotta go home

Reaffirming the imperative to go home once more.


I left my baby my friend

Repeating the act of leaving a loved one and acknowledging their anticipation.

I know she's waiting for me

Believing that the partner is still patiently waiting for their return.

Don't want to sing the blues, I got too much to lose

Avoiding a melancholic state due to having too much to lose.

So I guess I better go home

Final decision to go home to prevent potential troubles.
