It Won't Work This Time

(Aubrey Holt)



You walked up yesterday and you told me you were leavin'

Left a note sayin' mama won't be back

But you'll come back again and I've got news for you dear

You won't have a home and that's a fact.



Don't you come back on your knees askin' my forgiveness

Pack your bags and move on down the line

Don't you roll them eyes at me tellin' me you're sorry

It's too late babe and it won't work this time.

I've always been around Lord when you needed someone

I've played the role till I knew each line by heart

But now it's time to change won't you find another playmate

Someone who'll be glad to play the part.



Don't you come back on your knees askin' my forgiveness

Pack your bags and move on down the line

Don't you roll them eyes at me tellin' me you're sorry

It's too late babe and it won't work this time.

Don't you come back on your knees askin' my forgiveness

Pack your bags and move on down the line

Don't you roll them eyes at me tellin' me you're sorry

It's too late babe and it won't work this time.



It's too late babe and it won't work this time...
