The Comeback

Memphis Slim

[Verse 1]
I know my baby is going to jump and shout
I know my baby, the girl is gonna jump and shout
When the train rolls up and I come walking out

[Verse 2]
Hold out baby, I'll be home one day
Hold out baby, I'll be home one day
Please don't let nobody lead my little girl astray

[Verse 3]
Oh well, baby, girl, you know that I love you
Oh, my little baby, girl, you know that I love you
Because you can treat me low down and dirty
And I'll come right back and worry you

[Verse 4]
Well, I've been gone but now I'm coming back
Well, I've been gone, I've been gone, I've been gone
I've been gone, I've been gone, but now I'm coming back
It seems I've been gone so long, so long
'Til I don't know how to act

[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 5]
Bye-bye baby, I guеss I'll be on my way
Bye-bye baby, I guеss I'll be on my way
I'll find my loving baby girl somewhere, somehow, someday
(Where?)

[Verse 1]
I know my baby, I know my baby is gonna jump and shout
She's gonna jump and shout
I know my baby, I know my baby is gonna jump and shout
Before when the train rolls up
And her daddy comes walking out (Well, well, well, well)

[Verse 2]
Hold out baby, I'll be home one day (Ah, sing it, god dang it)
Hold out baby, hold out baby, hold out baby, hold out baby
Please don't let nobody lead my little girl astray

[Outro]
I love you, baby, I love you
Oh yeah
