Baby please don’t go

Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Down to New Orleans
You know I love you so
Baby, please don't go

Let me be your dog
Let me be your dog
Let me be your dog
I put you way down out here
Let you walk the floor
Baby, please don't go

Well, you know my baby left me
And I pleaded with her not to go
But she would not listen
She said, "That's it, I'm leaving"
She said, "I'm tired of datin' musicians"
"I need a good man, that can provide for me"

So I followed her
I followed her down to the train station
And a train pulled in
And she bought herself a ticket
Had it in her right hand

I said, "Baby please, don't go"
She said, "That's it I've made up my mind"
"I'm moving to Chicago, and I'm gonna go"
Oh, and it hurt me so bad
I said, "Honey, you see me here, I'm hurt"
"And now I'm crying"

Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Down to New Orleans
You know I love you so
Baby, please don't go
