Mr police captain: Listen to my plea
I want to make my baby: Come back home to me

Give me a search warrant: And a great big hound
I'm going to find my baby: If I have to track her down

I know where she's at: But her man won't let me in
All I want is a search warrant: And a bottle of gin

I'm going to get running drunk: And go into that place
And that backbiting man: Better not show his face

I love my baby: But she treat me so unkind
If she thinks she can quit me: She really have lost her
Mind
