Sam Cooke At The Copa

it's time you went home, Bill Bailey
 it's time you went home
 you got a woman there that moans the whole night long
 she said she'd do the cooking, Billy
 said she'd pay the rent
 she realizes that she done you wrong, yeah


 stop thinking about that lonely evening
 that she drove you out
 with nothing but a fine toothcomb
 oh then I know that's a shame, Bill
 maybe you're the blame, Bill
 so Bailey go on home


 it's time you went home Bill Bailey
 it's time you home
 you got a woman there she's moaning and a groaning
 the whole night long
 said she'd do that cooking, Billy
 pay the telephone bill and the rent
 she realizes that she done you wrong


 stop thinking about that lonely evening
 that she drove you out
 and remember, remember she didn't let you leave
 without that fine tooth comb


 And I know, I know
 I know it's a shame
 maybe you're to blame, Bill
 and Bailey won't you go on home
 Bailey won't you get on home
 Bailey go on home
