Big Daddy

(álbum: The Wildest Comes Home - 1962)

Yeah honey, I'm leaving ya
I'm gonna cut out
Don't call me 'cause I'll call you
Bye!

Won't you come home, big daddy?
Won't you come home?
I cried the whole day long
I'll do the cooking daddy
I'll pay the rent
I know I done you wrong
Remember that rainy evening
I threw you out
With nothing but a coat
I know I'm to blame, ain't that a shame
Big daddy, won't you please come home

You want your big daddy to come on home
That's what I heard you say
'Cause you've been crying the whole day long
Now you, you're gonna do the cooking, is that right?
And you gonna get out and pay the rent, that's a new deal
Ooh, you know you done me wrong
'Cause I remember the rainy evening
W-when you threw me out
I didn't had nothing to eat for five days
What am I gonna do wit a cold?
You know you're to blame
Ain't that a shame?
Ah, I'm gonna give you another chance
Come here little mama

Won't you come home, big daddy?
Won't you come home?
I cried the whole day long
(Don't cry, don't cry, little mama)
I'll do the cooking daddy
(Let me get out and work and I'll pay the rent)
I know I done you wrong
(You know, you know, you remember)
(The rainy evening when you threw me out)
(Confess to the people what you left me with)
Just a comb
I know I'm to blame

Ain't that a shame
Big daddy, won't you please come
Big daddy, won't you please come
Big daddy, won't you please come on home!
Big daddy, won't you please come
Big daddy, won't you please come
Big daddy, won't you please come on home!
Big daddy, won't you please come on
Come on home!
