It's my fault!
For coming home from work early last night
It's my fault!
For coming home from work early last night
Whoa, didn't know that you had company baby
Girl and I wasn't in no condition to fight
If I had known you had company darlin'
You know I would have waited for my life
If I had known you had company baby
Girl I would have waited for my life
Whoa, the man was twice my size
And I do believe he was packin' a Joe Louis punch
It's my fault!
For letting the big times come between our happiness
It's my fault!
For letting the big times come between our happiness
Whoa, I realize now I could have stayed home with you and the childrens baby
Where I could have avoided all this mess
