[Verse 1]
Chinny baby
For so long, I've been waiting
Chinny baby
For so long, I've been waiting
For you baby
For so long, I've been longing
Chinny baby
For so long, I've been waiting
[Pre-Chorus]
So, tell me when it's gonna be…ahn
When are you coming home back to me, I wanna know
Are you coming in June or July, tell me now
Or will I have to wait till November or December
[Chorus]
Chinny baby
When are you coming (Chinny baby)

When are you coming (Chinny baby)
I wanna know now
When are you coming (Chinny baby)
Oh, Chinny baby
When are you coming, I wanna know

Chinny darling, darling, darling
Whatever they told you, please don't believe them
Chinny sweetie, sweetie, sweetie
Remember the good days, remember the good times
I am wishing, wishing, wishing
To hold you in my arms again where I can kiss your lips and
Feel and touch you, many many things
Baby you're gonna like it, you're gonna like it

Tell me when it's gonna be…ahn
When are you coming home back to me, I wanna know
Are you coming in June or July, tell me now
Or will I have to wait till November or December

I've been trying to be strong
Yeah eh eh, ahn ahn ahn
I don't wanna wait in vain
Baby, when are you coming back?
Eh eh eh!

Chinny baby
When are you coming (Chinny baby)
Chinny baby

I wanna know now (eh eh)
When are you coming (Chinny baby)
Chinny baby (I wanna know)
When are you coming (Chinny baby)
Oh, Chinny baby (I wanna know)
When are you coming (better tell me)

When are you coming, when are you coming
When are you coming, I wanna know
I wanna know…I wanna know
