I've got the blues, I feel so lonely
I'll give the world if I could only
Make you understand
It surely would be grand

I'm gonna telephone my baby
Ask her, "Won't you please come home?"
'Cause when you're gone
I'm all forlorn
I'm worried all day long

Baby won't you please come home?
'Cause your papa's all alone
I have tried in vain
Evermore to call your name
When you left you broke my heart
That will never make us part
Every hour in the day
You gonna hear me say
Baby won't you please come home?
Baby won't you please come home?

Baby won't you please come home?
'Cause your papa's all alone
I have tried in vain
Evermore to call your name
When you left you broke my heart
That will never make us part
Every hour in the day
You gonna hear me say
Baby won't you please come home? I say
Baby won't you please come home?
