it's time you went home, Bill Bailey
|
it's time you went home
|
you got a woman there that moans the whole night long
|
she said she'd do the cooking, Billy
|
said she'd pay the rent
|
she realizes that she done you wrong, yeah
|
|
stop thinking about that lonely evening
|
that she drove you out
|
with nothing but a fine toothcomb
|
oh then I know that's a shame, Bill
|
maybe you're the blame, Bill
|
so Bailey go on home
|
|
it's time you went home Bill Bailey
|
it's time you home
|
you got a woman there she's moaning and a groaning
|
the whole night long
|
said she'd do that cooking, Billy
|
pay the telephone bill and the rent
|
she realizes that she done you wrong
|
|
stop thinking about that lonely evening
|
that she drove you out
|
and remember, remember she didn't let you leave
|
without that fine tooth comb
|
|
And I know, I know
|
I know it's a shame
|
maybe you're to blame, Bill
|
and Bailey won't you go on home
|
Bailey won't you get on home
|
Bailey go on home
|
