Oh My Babe Blues by Ma Rainey Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some these days, I'm going to leave my home
Oh my babe
Now I'll go, I'm going, and it won't be long
If I go, let me go
If I stay, let me say
Maybe I'll ask, "Let me come back home"

[Verse 2]
Tell my dad I won't be home tonight
Oh my babe
My heart my aches and I'm not treated right
My heart's down, it's a shame
And I just can't call his name
Still I'll ask to let me come back home

[Verse 3]
Lordy, Lord, have mercy on poor me
Oh my babe
Send somebody to let my heart go free
When I go, leavе me alone
And I'll stay from my home
Tеll my dad I want to come back home
[Verse 4]
I'm leavin' now, I'm sorry we have to part
Oh my babe
'Cause you tried to break my aching heart
But someday you will say
"Come back home," babe, someday
Then I'll know my dad wants me back home
