Sings:
I'm goin' home to see my babe fair
I'm goin' home see my baby
I'm goin' home see my baby
And i don't doggone mean maybe

Been workin' like i never did before
Just made a lot of money
To get to my baby's door

Been through appaloosa
Been to tennessee
Been up in a airplane
Even out on the sea
I can't find a woman
To satis-satisfy me

Got a woman in the country
One in the city too
I have got to find a woman
That thrill me through and through

I'm goin' home see my baby
I'm goin' home to see my baby
I'm goin' home to see my baby
And i don't don't mean maybe

(mccomb!)

Travel two days
And two nights long
Snow storm rainy weather
Get back in yo' arms

I'm goin' home to see my baby
I'm goin' home to see my baby

(all arrive for mccomb!)
(mccomb!)

Fades-
(all arrive for mccomb).
