Cover of the traditional blues standard, which has its beginnings in the early 19th century and was first recorded by Big Joe Williams in 1935.
Hooker’s 1949 arrangement of the song was the basis for a number of later versions, including the famous rendition recorded by Them.
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go back to New Orleans
Because I love you so
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low, my heart is beating so
So baby please don't go
Made me weep and moan
You made me weep and moan
You made me weep and moan, don't leave me all alone
Baby please don't go
You got me way down here
You got me way down here
You got me way down here, you didn't shed a tear
Oh baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Baby, Please Don’t Go was written by Big Joe Williams.
Baby, Please Don’t Go was produced by Bill Grauer.
