Does anyone have lyrics to Bill Bailey Won't You Please Come Home by tom chapin?

Answer 1

On one summer's day, the sun was shining fine.The lady love of old Bill Bailey was hanging clothes on the lineIn her back yard, and weeping hard.She married a B & O brakeman that took and throw'd her down.Bellering like a prune-fed calf with a big gang hanging 'round;And to that crowd she yelled out loud. Won't you come home Bill Bailey, won't you come home?She moans the whole day long.I'll do the cooking darling, I'll pay the rent;I knows I've done you wrong;Member that rainy eve that I drove you out,With nothing but a fine tooth comb?I know I'se to blame; well ain't that a shame?Bill Bailey won't you please come home?Bill drove by that door in an automobile,A great big diamond coach and footman, hear that big wench squeal;"He's all alone," I heard her groan.She hollered through that door, "Bill Bailey are you sore?Stop a minute; won't you listen to me? Won't I 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 darling, I'll pay the rent;I knows I've done you wrong;Member that rainy eve that I drove you out,With nothing but a fine tooth comb?I know I'se to blame; well ain't that a shame?Bill Bailey won't you please come home?
