Somebody's callin'; callin' my little darlin' "darlin'" tonight
This time, oh Lord, it aint me
Instead of sittin' here a'bawlin', bawlin'
I ought to be a crawlin' back to make things right
Somebody's callin' my little darlin' "darlin'" tonight.

Well, the clock on the wall says its midinght
And my baby still ain't home; where, oh, where can she be
Well, I got a sneakin' suspicion, she ain't all alone
What is this sound I hear a hauntin' me?

Somebody's callin'; callin' my little darlin' "darlin'" tonight
This time, oh Lord, it aint me
Instead of sittin' here a'bawlin', bawlin'
I ought to be a crawlin' back to make things right
Somebody's callin' my little darlin' "darlin'" tonight.

Well, she used to always be there whenever I would call
Waitin' for me paitiently
Now my fingers are calloused over from dialin' this old phone
I guess she's over getting over me.

Somebody's callin'; callin' my little darlin' "darlin'" tonight
This time, oh Lord, it aint me
Instead of sittin' here a'bawlin', bawlin'
I ought to be a crawlin' back to make things right
Somebody's callin' my little darlin' "darlin'" tonight.

Instead of sittin' here a'bawlin', bawlin'
I ought to be a crawlin' back to make things right
Somebody's callin' my little darlin' "darlin'" tonight...
