Mr police captain: Listen to my plea I want to make my baby: Come back home to me Give me a search warrant: And a great big hound I'm going to find my baby: If I have to track her down I know where she's at: But her man won't let me in All I want is a search warrant: And a bottle of gin I'm going to get running drunk: And go into that place And that backbiting man: Better not show his face I love my baby: But she treat me so unkind If she thinks she can quit me: She really have lost her Mind
