Mr. Freddie's Kokomo Blues Lyrics

Freddie Spruell Mr. Freddie's Kokomo Blues

Won't you come on baby come on baby : let's go back to
Kokomo
That's a small town in Western Michigan : tell daddy
don't you want to go

Now these women around Chicago is crazy : hollering
about the times so hard
And the women in Kokomo baby : they drinking liquor
from real *costly* bar

Why don't you come on baby come on : and let's go back
to Kokomo
Yes I'm leaving here tomorrow morning : tell me baby
don't you want to go

Kokomo's about the best city : I declare that I ever
saw
You can break them down both night and day : and won't
be worried and bothered with no law

Now I tell you all about that city : I declare it ain't
a great large town
But everywhere you go in Kokomo baby : you find the
women there breaking them down

Said now Mary had a little lamb : I mean his fleece was
white as snow
Mary take that little lamb with her : to most every
place that she go

She went down to the depot agent : they give her a
ticket back to Kokomo
Depot agent look down at mary's lamb : said Mary I
declare your lamb can't go

She *lied* just come on baby come on : I declare I'm
going back to Kokomo
Why don't you come on baby come on : listen tell me
don't you want to go

I will buy you a ticket baby : only cost us nineteen
seventy‑five
When that train leaves tomorrow morning : I want to
catch that morning train and ride
