Lyrics:
Checkin' out my baby
Find out what she puttin' down
Checkin' out my baby
Find out what she's puttin' down
So many nights and days
I've been all out of town

I wouldn't come home
I wouldn't even write
I wouldn't come home
I wouldn't even write
I caught me a plane
I flew back that same night

Checkin' out my baby
Find out what she puttin' down
Checkin' out my baby
Find out what she puttin' down
So many nights and days
I've been all out of town

I wouldn't come home
I wouldn't even write
I wouldn't come home
I wouldn't even write
And I caught me a plane
I flew back that same night
