Now he's been gone
Such a long time
Ever since he's been gone
He's been on my mind

I got a letter today
Just about noon
He said: Don't worry, I'll be home soon

Everyday will be like a holiday
When my baby, when my baby comes home

I'll never have to worry
About sitting by the phone
Cause when he gets here
I wont ever, ever be alone

He says he'll get here sometime today
I know that when he gets here
He'll never go away

Now, everyday will be like a holiday
When my baby, when my baby comes home

Everyday will be like a holiday
When my baby, when my baby comes home
