Aileen Stanley – Bill Bailey, Won’t You Please Come Home? Lyrics
Artist: Aileen Stanley
Song: Bill Bailey, Won’t You Please Come Home?
On one summer’s day
Sun was shinin’ fine
Lady love, I’ll hold you Bailey
Was hanging clothes like a line in her backyard
And weepin’ hard
She married a mean old grape-man
That took and throwed her down
Hollerin’ like a pumba cat with a big {?} hangin’ round
Entered the crowd, she yelled aloud
“Won’t you come home, Bill Bailey?
Won’t you come home?”
She moans the whole day long
“I’ll do the cooking, darlin’, I’ll pay the rent
I knows I done you wrong
‘Member that rainy eve dat I drove you out
With nothin’ but a fine tooth comb
I knows I’s to blame and ain’t that a shamе
Bill Bailey, won’t you please comе home?”
Bill broke by that door in an automobile
A great big diamond, coach and footman
Hear that big gal squeal
“He’s all alone”, I heard her groan
“Bill Bailey, is you sore?
Stop, oh Billy
Won’t you listen to me?
Won’t I won’t see you no more?
Bill winked his eye as he heard her cry
“Won’t you come home, Bill Bailey?
Won’t you come home?”
She moans the whole day long
“I’ll do the cooking, darlin’, I’ll pay the rent
I knows I done you wrong
‘Member that rainy eve dat I drove you out
With nothin’ but a fine tooth comb
I knows I’s to blame and ain’t that a shame
Bill Bailey, won’t you please come home?”
