I got the 
I got them love sick blues ya'll 
Man, I can't find my baby 
I think she took off with another man 
I been around the world looking twice 

You know I checked in New York City 
On the streets and on the subways 
And I looked around that tired town to find the one who loved me 
I looked out in the Hamptons thought she'd be hangin' with them rich folks 
But no she wasn't anywhere hangin' on the east coast 

I wish my baby come home 
I want my baby come home 
I wish my baby come home 
I want my baby yeah my baby to come back home 
Man you know I love that girl 

I checked down to the Southern plains from Alabama to Georgia 
Honey if you hear this, please know I'm looking for ya 
I checked with all my rebel friends 
I've looked around for weeks 
And I swear until I find her I won't eat and I won't sleep 

I want my baby come home 
I want my baby come home 
I want my baby come home 
I wish my baby yeah my baby would come back home 

I went from Albuquerque to Maine and didn't find a damn thing 
So I looked in California - up and down the coast 
I looked all over Hollywood - it wasn't even close 
Never found nothin' 
So, I came home, home to Detroit City 
And there she was sittin' on my porch - My baby looked so pretty 

Now my baby's back home 
Yea my baby came home 
Yea my baby's back home 
I'm so happy that my baby is finally home
