Take my baby now she's gone
Mississippi train
Take my baby now she's gone
I cried down the tracks
Saying baby come back
Went running down the railroad tracks
A-cryin' "Babe come back"
A-cryin' "Babe come back"
She's going to the bayou
The bayou where the river flows
She's going to the bayou
The bayou where the river flows
Come on baby
Oh baby
Well I need you so
Woh woh baby
Ah baby
I need you so
I'm writing her letter
I say a letter
Special mail
I'm writing her letter
I say a letter
Special mail
Saying come home baby
Come home I love you so
Saying come home baby
I need you so
Saying babe come home
Saying babe come home
Saying babe come home
Saying babe come home
