Baby let's play house

You may go to college

May go to school

You may get religion, baby, don't you be nobody's fool

Now baby, come, baby, come

Come back, baby, come

Come back, baby, I want to play house with you

Well, listen, let me tell you baby

What I'm talking about

Come on back to me, little girl, so we can play some house

Now baby, come, baby, come

Come back, baby, come

Come back, baby, I want to play house with you

Now this is one thing, baby

What I want you to know

Come on back and let's play a little house and we can do what we did before

Now baby, come, baby, come

Come back, baby, come

Come back, baby, I want to play house with you

Now listen, let me tell you baby

Don't you understand

Rather see you dead, little girl, than to be with another man

Now baby, come, baby, come

Come back, baby, come

Come back, baby, I want to play house with you
