Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home

Hey, Bill Bailey
Don't look now
But somebody's calling you
Who?
Why, your lady friend, that's who
If I were you
If I were you
I'd get my little old self home

Won't you come home, Bill Bailey
Won't you come home?
She moans the whole day long
I'll do the cooking, honey
I'll pay the rent
I know I done you wrong

Do you remember that rainy evening
I threw you out
With nothing but a fine tooth comb
Yeah, I know I'm to blame
Ain't it a shame
Bailey, won't you please come home
Oh, walk on home, Bill

Won't you come home, Bill Bailey
Won't you come home?
She moans the whole day long
I'll do the cooking, honey
I'll even pay the rent
I know, I know I done you wrong

Do you remember that rainy evening
That I drove you out
With nothing but a fine tooth comb
And you are bald
I know I'm to blame
Well ain't it a shame

Bailey, won't you please come
Bailey, won't you please come
Bailey, won't you please come
Bailey, won't you please come
Bailey, won't you please come

Baby, won't you please come
Baby, won't you please come
Baby, won't you please come
Baby, won't you please come
One more time
Oh, Bailey won't you please come home
Get on home
