Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stuck on you
Got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose
Guess I'm on my way
I needed a friend
And the way I feel now, I guess I'll be with you 'til the end
Guess I'm on my way
Mighty glad you stayed
Stuck on you
I been a fool too long, I guess it's time for me to come on home
Guess I'm on my way, whoa, oh
So hard to see
That a woman like you could wait around for a man like me
Guess I'm on my way
I'm mighty glad you stayed, oh (mighty glad you stayed)
(Mighty, mighty) Mighty glad

Oh, I'm leaving on that midnight train tomorrow
And I know just where I'm going now
I've packed up my troubles and I've thrown them all away
Oh yeah
'Cause this time, little darling
I'm coming home to stay

I'm stuck on you (stuck on yo)
I've got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose (I've got a feeling)
Guess I'm on my way, oh yeah
I needed a friend
And the way I feel now, I guess I'll be with you 'til the end
Guess I'm on my way
I'm mighty glad you stayed (mighty glad you stayed, mighty)
I'm mighty glad you stayed
Mighty glad you stayed





Mighty glad you came around Darius
