Alberta Hunter — Bring Back The Joys

[Verse] Last night I sat and thought, dear Why did we ever part I've sat all night and cried, dear It seems you're breaking my heart I've tried to do things to please you But dear, it's been all in vain If you will come back, I'll forgive you Yes dear, and I'll take the blame [Chorus] Oh honey bunch, I'm lonesome I need you, 'deed I do Won't you please come back to my sugar shack I'll sit and worry about you Don't care to live without you See how you haunt me Someday you will want me You know my love is true My heart keeps calling you Each hour seems like years, dear Won't you forgive and let's live like true lovers do, my honeydew I'll build a home just big enough for two Where we can love, yes, bill and coo So come back and bring the joys that you've taken from me [Chorus] Oh honey bunch, I'm lonesome I need you, 'deed I do Won't you please come back to my sugar shack I'll sit and worry about you Don't care to live without you See how you haunt me Someday you will want me You know my love is true My heart keeps calling you Each hour seems like years, dear Won't you forgive and let's live like true lovers do, my honeydew I'll build a home just big enough for two Where we can love, yes, bill and coo So come back and bring the joys that you've taken from me
