Verse 1:
My baby's gone an' left me,
Left me all alone.
My baby's gone,
An' she left me all alone.
So alone, I want my baby home.
Verse 2:
I still remember,
The day she went away.
That was the day,
My angel me left me to stay.
Oh, no, no, I want my baby home.
Bridge:
Ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo.
I know that she is gone.
Repeated: Ooh-ooh-ooh.

Verse 3:
That was a death scream of an angel.
Don't know why, oh, why?
I want to be beside her,
But I'm too afraid to die.
Ooh-oh, oh-oh, I want my baby back home.
Outro:
I want my baby home.
I know that she is gone,
But still I want her home.

Ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo.
Weeping & wailing to fade.
My baby's gone an' left me,
Left me all alone.
My baby's gone,
An' she left me all alone.
So alone, I want my baby home.
