JIMMY SMITH
"I'll Close My Eyes"
(Buddy Kaye / Billy Reid / William "Billy" Reid)

Now baby please don't go back to New Orleans
You know I love you so, if you go take me with you

You got me waiting here now ill be a dog and walk along
Now baby please don't go
If you gotta go take me with you

Now don't you call my name
You got me waiting here like a ball and chain
Now baby please don't go

I be a man and gone
He left the county foam he he had his shackles on
Now baby please don't go
Now baby please don't go back to New Orleans
You know I love you so, if you go take me with you
