Baby, Come Back
The Equals
Notes:Also performed by Eddy Grant (1983)

Come back
Baby, come back
Baby, come back
Baby, come back

That you have run away
I'm asking you for the first time
Hey (all right)
Hey (all right!)
Hey, yeah

Come back
Baby, come back
Baby, come back
Baby, come back

There ain't no use in you crying
'Cause I'm more hurt than you
I shoulda not been out flirting
But now my love is true
Ooh (all right)
Ooh (OK!)
Ooh, yeah

Come back
Baby, come back
Baby, come back
Baby, come back

Come back, baby, don't you leave me
Baby, baby, please don't go
Oh, won't you give me a second chance
Baby, I love you so (all right)
Oh (oh, yeah)
Oh, yeah

Come back
I said baby, come back
I said baby, come back
Oh won't you please come back


2.Softly Softly

Lyricist:Eddy Grant

I love Jenny, Jenny loves me
I'm in trouble as you will see
I went to see Lucy
(Lucy)

This morning at half past three
(Whoopie)
The floorboard started to squeak

Softly, softly, softly, softly, softly
(Hey, hey, hey)
Hold on baby, I'm coming

I'm in trouble, trouble loves me
Great confusion, Lord help me
Beginning of the end for me
(Whoopie)

And I didn't even kiss Lucy
(Lucy)
But Jenny was so noisy

Softly, softly, softly, softly, softly
(Hey, hey, hey)
Hold on baby, I'm coming

I said, I love Jenny, Jenny loves me
I'm in trouble as you will see
I went to see Lucy
(Lucy)

This morning at half past three
(Whoopie)
The floorboard started to squeak

Softly, softly, softly, softly, softly
(Hey, hey, hey)
Hold on baby, I'm coming


3.Black Skinned Blue Eyed Boys

People, white is white
What's black ain't clover?

But the teachers beat yer
When they see that they can't reach yer

The world will be half-breed

You see the Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys
They ain't gonna fight no doggone wars

They ain't got no country
It's a brand new day

They ain't gonna fight no wars
Oh, now, baby
You know that we hate fighting

5.Black Is Black

Black is black
I want my baby back
It's gray, it's gray
Since she went away, ooh, ooh
What can I do?
'Cause I-I-I'm feelin' blue

If I had my way
She'd be back today
But she don't intend
To see me again, ooh, ooh
What can I do?
'Cause I-I-I'm feelin' blue

I can't choose
It's too much to lose
My love's too strong
Wow, maybe if she
Would come back to me
Then it can't go wrong

Bad is bad
That I feel so sad
It's time, it's time
That I found peace of mind, ooh, ooh
What can I do?
'Cause I-I-I'm feelin' blue

I can't choose
It's too much to lose
My love's too strong
Wow! Maybe if she
Would come back to me
Then it can't go wrong

Black is black
I want my baby back
It's gray, it's gray
Since she went away, ooh, ooh
What can I do
'Cause I-I-I'm feelin' blue
'Cause I-I-I'm feelin' blue
