    Baby, Please Don't Go - Lightnin' Hopkins




    "Baby, Please Don't Go"

    Now, baby please don't go,
    Now, baby please don't go,
    Baby please don't go,
    Back to New Orleans
    And get your cold ice cream.

    I've b'lieve that a man done gone
    I've b'lieve that a man done gone
    I've b'lieve that a man done gone
    To the county farm
    Now, with his long chain on.


    Turn your lamp down low
    You turn your lamp turn low
    Turn your lamp down low
    I cried all night long
    Now, baby please don't go.

    I beg you night befo'
    I beg you night befo'
    Beg you night befo'
    Turn your lamp down low
    Now, baby, please don't go.

    I b'lieve my baby done lie
    I b'lieve my baby done lie
    I b'lieve my baby --- lie
    Says she didn't have a man
    Now, while I had my time.

    'Fore I'd be yo' dog
    I swore I'd leave your do'
    `Fore I'd be yo' dog
    I'd pack my trunk this mo'nin, baby
    Go back to Rollin' Fork, uhm.

    I b'lieve I'll leave, here
    I b'lieve I'll leave you here
    I b'lieve I'll leave you here
    'Cause you got me way up here
    An you don't feel my care.

    Now, baby please don't go
    Oh, baby, please don't go
    Now, baby please don't go
    Back to New Orleans
    Even though I love you so.

    I b'lieve you tryin' just leave me here
    Why leave yo' daddy, here?
    Why leave yo' daddy, here?
    You got me way down here
    An you don't feel my care
