Won't you come home, Bill Bailey?
Won't you come home?
I moan the whole night long
I'll do the cooking, honey, I'll pay the rent
I know that I've done you wrong
Remember that rainy eve that I drove you out
With nothing but a fine tooth comb
Yes, I know that I'm to blame
And ain't that a shame?
Bill Bailey, won't you please come home?
Won't you come home, Bill Bailey?
Won't you come home?
I moan the whole night long
I'm-a gonna do your cooking, honey
I'm-a gonna pay your rent
I know that I've done you wrong
(Won't you come home, Bill Bailey?)
Remember that rainy eve that I drove you out
With nothing but a fine tooth comb
Well, I know that I'm to blame
And ain't that a dirty, low-down shame?
Bill Bailey, won't you please come home?
Come home, Bill Bailey
Bill Bailey, won't you please come on home?
Come home, Bill Bailey
Bill Bailey, won't you please come on home?
Come on home
