I'M GONNA WRITE A LETTER TO MY BABY
(Reuben Saunders)

The Basin Street Boys - 1948


I'm gonna write a letter to my baby
And ask her won't she please come home
'Cause I'm so all alone
Darling, can't you see what you mean to me

Then I'll tell you how much I miss you
And how I want you so
Then I'll tell you how much I need you
And I'll never let you go

I'm gonna write a letter to my baby
And ask her won't she please come home
And in closing I'll just add
Baby, baby, won't you please come home

Then I'll tell you how much I miss you
And how I need you so
Baby, gonna tell you how much I love you
And I'll never let you go

I'm gonna write a letter to my baby
And ask her won't she please come home
And in closing I'll just add
Baby, baby, please come home
