Whoa darlin' you've been mine so long
Now that I need you, I'm so all alone, whoa whoa
I need you darlin' and stand by me, stand by me
Well all of my money, my friends have gone
At night I'm calling I want you to, come back home,
whoa whoa
I need you darlin' and stand by me, stand by me
Well, sometimes I feel that all of my tryin' was all
in vain
I don't think I can last much longer, 'till I see your
face again, whoa whoa
If I could just, hold your hand and I know that you
would, understand
Whoa, whoa, I need you darlin' and stand by me, stand
by me
Well sometimes I feel that all a my tryin', was all in
vain
I don't think I can last much longer, 'till I see your
face again, whoa whoa
If I could just hold your hand, and I know that you
would a-understand
Whoa whoa, I need you darlin' and stand by me, stand
by me
When I'm sick darlin', I want ya to stand by me
Early in the mo'nin', stand by me
Gettin' late in the evenin', stand by me
When all of my money's gone, stand by me
Stand by me
