Orig.: E
G
On one summer's day,
Sun was shinin' fine,
The lady love of old Bill Bailey
B
Was a-hangin' clothes on the line
D7
In her back yard,
G
And a-weepin' hard.
She married a B&O brakeman
Dat took and throwed her down,
Bellerin' like a prune-fed calf
B
Wid a big gang hangin' 'round
D7
And to dat crowd,
G
She yelled out loud:
Won't you come home, Bill Bailey
Won't you come home?
Ddim D7
She moans the whole day long.
I'll do the cookin', darling
Ddim D7
I'll pay the rent,
D+ G G#dim Am D7
I know I've done you wrong;
G
'Member dat rainy evening
I drove you out,
Gmaj7 G G7 C E7 Am Am7
With nothing but a fine-tooth comb?
C C7 A7
I knows I'se to blame,
Cm G B7 E7
Well, ain't dat a shame
Em Am7 D7 G
Bill Bailey won't you please come home.
Bill drove by dat door
In an automobile,
A great big diamond, coach and footman
B
Hear dat big wench squeal,
D7
He's all alone
G
I heard her groan.
G
She hollered through that door
Bill Bailey, is you sore?
Stop a minute, won't you listen to me
B
Won't I see you no more?
D7
Bill winked his eye
G
As he heard her cry:
Won't you come home, Bill Bailey
Won't you come home?
Ddim D7
She moans the whole day long.
I'll do the cookin', darling
Ddim D7
I'll pay the rent,
D+ G G#dim Am D7
I know I've done you wrong;
G
'Member dat rainy evening
I drove you out,
Gmaj7 G G7 C E7 Am Am7
With nothing but a fine-tooth comb?
C C7 A7
I knows I'se to blame,
Cm G B7 E7
Well, ain't dat a shame
Em Am7 D7 G
Bill Bailey won't you please come home.
