Charlie Rich was simultaneously one of the most critically acclaimed and most erratic country singers of post-World War II era. Rich had all the elements of being one of the great country stars of the '60s and '70s, but his popularity never matched his critical notices. What made him a critical favorite also kept him from mass success. Throughout his career, Rich willfully bended genres, fusing country, jazz, blues, gospel, rockabilly, and soul. Though he had 45 country hits in a career that spanned nearly four decades, he became best-known for his lush, Billy Sherrill-produced countrypolitan records of the early '70s.

Charlie Rich
Sittin' & Thinkin'
(Please baby wait for me)
(Wait for me)
(Wait for me)
I got loaded last night on a bottle of gin.
And I had a fight with my best girl friend.
But when Im drinkin I am nobodys friend.
But, please baby wait for me until they let me out again.
I know the same thing has happened before.
And every time it does,
I hate it more and more.
But when Im drinkin I am nobodys friend.
But, please baby wait for me until they let me out again.
(Spend a whole lot of time)
Spend a whole lot of time,
(Spend a whole lot of time)
Sittin and thinkin,
(Spend a whole lot of time)
Sittin and just thinkin bout you.
If I didnt spend so much time sittin and drinkin.
Wed still have a love that we once knew.
Oh, I wont promise the same thing wont happen again.
But I can promise, itll be a long, long time till then.
Cause when Im drinkin I am nobodys friend.
But, please baby wait for me until they let me out again.
Please baby wait for me until they let me out again.
