Baby Don't You Want to Go? - Tommy McClennan

Baby, don’t you want to go?

Take your time now and make this one right

Baby don’t you want to go?

Go where?

To that land of California, sweet old Chicago

Yeah

Now did you get that letter

Dropped in your backyard?

I wants to come to see you

Your best man got me barred

Cry, oh ooh

Baby, don’t you want to go?

To that land Californ', sweet old Chicago

Now I don’t drink because I’m dry

I drink because I’m blue

The reason I drink, pretty mama

Now I can’t get 'long with you

Baby, don’t you want to go?

Yeah

To that land a Californ', sweet old Chicago

Now, look-a-here, baby

Don’t have to tell you know more

You can get my lovin'

If you just let him go

Cry, oh

Playin' me a long shout

Baby, don’t you want to go?

To that land a Californ', sweet old Chicago

Planned on May

Yes, yes

Yeah

Yes, yes

Yeah, June or May

Baby, don’t you wanna go?

Yeah, hey

Baby, don’t you wanna go?

Go where?

To that land of Californ', sweet old Chicago

Yeah

Now, my my mama told me

«Papa, startin' to cry

Son, you’re too young-a man

To have them women your side»

She cried, «Look-a-here, babe

I know you wants to go

To that land of Californ', sweet old Chicago»

Oh, be-be-be-ba

Kee-da-da-da
