Come Back Alive - Delta Rae

Call me back darlin'

When you hear me call your name

If I don’t hear you

I’ll think somebody came

If I can’t find you

I’ll wait on down the hill

And if you don’t find me

I’ll think you been killed

And if you don’t find me

I’ll run on down the road

Find me the Sheriff

Tell him what I know

Find me the Preacher and

Pray for your soul

No safe place child

We don’t know why

Come back my baby

Come back alive

Dogs go out searching

Men walk the land

I hold your bible

Tight in my hand

Cry every morning

Cry every night

'Cause I know for certain

Something ain’t right

When you’d been sleeping

Candle burned low

Devil came calling

And I didn’t know

No safe place child

We don’t know why

Come back my baby

Come back alive

Six cold months later

Cried all my tears

Had my suspicions

Had all my fears

Six cold months later

Something still wrong

Planted the seed corn

Nothing will grow

Six cold months later

What do I see

Fog in the distance

Eyes stare at me

Fall to my knees

And I call out your name

Call me back darlin

Call me back darlin

Call me back darlin

You ain’t the same

No safe place child

We don’t know why

Come back my baby

Come back alive
