Daddy, Won't You Please Come Home? Lyrics


When night is creeping, and I should be sleeping in bed
If you were peeping, you'd find that I'm weeping instead
My loving daddy left his baby again
Said he'd come back, but he forgot to say when
Night after night I'm crying
Daddy, won't you please come home?
Daddy, won't you please come home
I'm so lonesome
No one can fill that vacant chair
Home isn't home when you're not there
No need to knock, the door is open for you
Please daddy, even the clock are ticking
Daddy, won't you please come home?
Daddy, do you have to roam so very long?
There's lots of other new sheiks who would like to be sheik-ing

Haven't slipped yet, but I'm liable to weaken
Daddy, daddy won't you please come home?
Please daddy, even the clock keeps ticking
Daddy, won't you please come home?
Daddy, do you have to roam so very long?
There's lots of other new sheiks who would like to be sheik-ing
Haven't slipped yet, but I'm liable to weaken
Daddy, daddy won't you please come home?
(That's all)

Annette Hanshaw (October 18, 1901 - March 13, 1985) was one of the first great female jazz singers. In the late 1920s she ranked alongside Ethel Waters, Bessie Smith and The Boswell Sisters. Her singing style was relaxed and suited the new jazz-influenced pop music of the late 1920s. Although she had a low opinion of her own singing, she continues to have fans because of how she combined the voice of an ingenue with the spirit of a flapper.
