Julie London (born Gayle Peck; September 26, 1926 – October 18, 2000) was an American singer, actress and game show panelist of the 1960s and 1970s. She was best known for her smoky, sensual voice. Her singing career's peak was in the 1950s as a pop and jazz singer, scoring a hit with her 1955 single "Cry Me a River". In the three and a half decades of her acting career, she co-starred opposite Gary Cooper in Man of the West (1958). Before her retirement, she later achieved renewed success with the female lead role of nurse Dixie McCall in the 1970s medical drama Emergency! (1972–1979), co-starring her best friend Robert Fuller and her real-life husband and best friend Bobby Troup, and produced by her ex-husband Jack Webb. more »

(Hey, Bill Bailey, Don't look now but somebody's calling you.
Who? Why, your lady friend, that's who.
If I were you, if I were you, I'd get my little old self home)

Won't you come home, Bill Bailey, won't you come home?
She moans the whole day long
I'll do the cookin', honey, I'll pay the rent
I know I done you wrong

Do you remember that rainy evenin'
I threw you out with nothin' but a fine tooth comb?
Yeah, I know I'm to blame, ain't it a shame
Bailey, won't you please come home

(A'walk on home, Bill.)

(Ah, like it like that!)

(Hey, Bailey! Let's go on home one more time ya'hear?)

Won't cha come home Bill Bailey, won't cha come home?
She moans the whole day long...
I'll do the cookin' honey, I'll even pay the rent
I know, I know I done you wrong...
Do you remember that rainy evenin', ah
That I drove you out, with nothin but a fine tooth comb?
(And you are bald!)
I know I'm to blame, well ain't it a shame

Bailey, won't cha please come
Bailey, won't cha please come
