One one summer’s day,
\nSun was shinin’ fine,
\nThe lady love of old Bill Bailey
\nWas hangin’ clothes on the line
\nIn her back yard, and weepin’ hard.
\nShe married a B&O brakeman
\nThat took and throwed her down,
\nBellerin’ like a prune-fed calf
\nWith a big gang hanging round
\nAnd to that crowd, she hollered loud:cho:
\nWon’t you come home, Bill Bailey
\nWon’t you come home?
\nShe moans the whole day long.
\nI’ll do the cookin’, darlingI’ll pay the rent,
\nI know I’ve done you wrong;
\n‘Member that rainy eve thatI threw you out,
\nWith nothing but a fine-tooth comb?
\nI know I’m to blame,Well, ain’t that a shame
\nBill Bailey won’t you please come home.
\nBill drove by that doorIn an automobile,
\nA great big diamond, coach and footman
\nHear that lady squeal.
\nHe’s all aloneI heard her groan.
\nShe hollered through the door
\nBill Bailey, is you sore?
\nStop a minute, listen to me
\nWon’t I see you no more?
\nBill winks his eye
\nAs he heard her cry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
