If You Don't Come Back to Me Now Lyrics

if you don't come back to me now
I'm gonna hold my breath
I'm gonna drink bourbon for breakfast
wear chicken bones around my neck
I'm gonna smoke cigars in the house
if you don't come back to me now

if you don't come back to me now
I'm gonna crash the car
I'm go down to the river
I'm gonna get drunk in the park
i'm gonna sleep on the ground
if you don't come back to me now

howlin' at midnight
moanin' in the moonlight
going down to the boneyard to tango on the graves

if you don't come back to me now
I'm gonna eat raw meat
I'm gonna drink gasoline
I'm gonna dress like a priest
I'm gonna burn your house down

howlin' at midnight
moanin' in the moonlight
going down to the boneyard to tango on the graves

if you don't come back to me
if you don't come back to me
if you don't come back to me
if you don't come back to me now
better not come back at all

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
