Bill Bailey, won't you please come home
'Cause your mama's all alone
I have tried in vain, never no more to call your name
When you left you broke my heart
Because I never thought we'd part
Ev'ry hour in the dayyou will hear me say
Bill Bailey, won't you please come home
{sax solo}
When you left you broke my heart
Because I never thought we'd part
Ev'ry hour in the dayyou will hear me say
Bill Baily, Bill Bailey
Bill Bailey won't you please come home
'Cause your mama needs some lovin'
Bill Bailey won't you please come on home
