This Child Needs Its Father |
| This child needs its father |
| Come back home Joe (Come back) |
| This child needs its father |
| Come back home |
| We both need you Joe |
| Come back home |
| People talk as I walk with the baby |
| But I still hold my head up high |
| But the smile disguised the pain I feel |
| But they still see it in my eyes |
| I’m trying to do best I can (Best I can) |
| But I refuse to let this bed hold another man |
| Ooh ooh |
| This child needs its father |
| Come back home Joe (Come back) |
| This child needs its father |
| Come back home |
| We both need you Joe |
| Come back home |
| I just cry when I try to forget you |
| And I’m searching for something to do |
| But the baby starts fussing |
| And I see his face |
| And you know he’s the picture of you |
| Our future lies in your hands Joe (In your hands) |
| Because love wouldn’t be same with another man |
| (Joe) He calls for daddy ever day |
| (Joe) But you’re not there |
| (Joe) I’m runnin' outta things to say |
| How can I tell him that you just don’t care |
| This child needs its father, come back home |
| (Come back, come back) |
| This child needs its father, come back home Joe |
| This child needs its father, come back home Joe |
