Baby Come Home

Tammy Wynette · We Sure Can Love Each Other [Epic] [1971]

(Forest Borders)

Oh baby come home, baby come home

Oh baby come home, please come on home

I see your picture on every wall

Then I realize that you're not here at all.

Come on home now baby, come home

Well, I miss you so much

Come on home, come on home

I love you so much come on home.

All of these years were not all bad

'Cause I'm so lonely I feel so sad

Oh, won't you come back baby, come back to me

And I hope that you still love me.

Come on home now please come on home

Well, I miss you so much

Come on home, come on home

I love you so much, come on home.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, all of those years were not all bad

'Cause I'm so lonely I feel so sad

Oh, won't you come back baby, come back to me

And I hope that you still love me.

Come on home now please come on home

Well, I miss you so much

Come on home, come on home

I love you so much, come on home.

I love you so much, come on home.

I love you so much, come on home...

About Baby Come Home

Tammy Wynette's "Baby Come Home" stands as a defining anthem of the early 1970s country music era, capturing the raw emotion of longing and domestic devotion. Recorded for her album *We Sure Can Love Each Other*, the track exemplifies Wynette's signature ability to blend vocal warmth with narrative storytelling, a hallmark that would later cement her status as the "First Lady of Country." The song reflects the genre's shift toward more personal, relatable themes during this period, moving away from broad narratives to intimate depictions of marital life and the ache of separation. Its enduring popularity highlights Wynette's mastery in conveying complex feelings of hope and resilience through melody and lyricism, making it a staple in the country music canon for decades.
