[Chorus]
Baby, please don't go, baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go down to New Orleans
You know I love you so, baby, please don't go

[Verse 1]
When the man done gone, when the man done gone
When the man done gone down the county farm
He got the shackles on, baby, please don't go
Don't leave me

[Verse 2]
I'll be a dog, I'll be a dog, woof
I'll be a dog, kiss your way down here
When you walk along, baby, please don't go

[Chorus]
Baby, please don't go, baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go down to New Orleans
You know I love you so, baby, please don't go
Ay, ooh

[Verse 3]
No, baby please don't leave me
Why must you go away and do this to me, baby?
I want to suffer for you, suffer, suffer
Oh, baby, please don't go
No
[Bridge]
Baby, baby, baby
Please don't go, please don't go
Don’t go and leave me, please don't go
Baby, mmm
Baby, ah-uh-huh
Oh, don't go, ooh, don't go
Oh, don't go, ooh, don't go
Ah, don't go, don't go so slow
Oh, don't go, ooh, don't go
Why must you leave me lying on my back?
Going across the other side of the track
Found yourself a new man I know
So, baby, please don't go, baby, please don't go
No, no, no, no

[Outro]
Oh, please, please don't leave me, ah
I don't want to be left alone, baby
Ah, don't go, don't go, don't go
No
