about

"Baby Won't You Please Come Home" is a blues song written by Charles Warfield and Clarence Williams in 1919. The first hit version was Bessie Smith's 1923 recording, which stayed on the charts for four weeks peaking at No. 6.

This song was recorded and arranged as part of Milwaukee Record's live video series "Public Domain". It features musicians adapting some of the world’s best-known songs in ways they’ve never been heard before.

lyrics

I’ve got the blues
I feel so lonely
I’d give the world
If i could only
Make you understand
I’m sure id be so grand

Baby Wont You Please Come Home

I’m going to telephone
My baby..
And ask why im left all alone
I tried in vain
To call your name
I’m worried all day long

Baby wont you please come home

Every hour in the day
Every hour in the day
Every hour
In the day

You can always hear me say
You can always
Hear me say...

Baby wont you please come home
