Description:
Why don't you call your mother more than you do?<br/>She lies awake at night and cries for you<br/>Why don't you write a letter or maybe even better<br/>Take the morning train and head for home again<br/>Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you<br/>She's baked an apple pie the way she used to<br/>Come back Billie Jo, she longs to see you<br/>You could be here in no time if you choose to!<br/>You always were an independent girl<br/>But you have time enough to see the world<br/>Oh, come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you<br/>And everyone knows I need you too!<br/>When you were just a child of twelve and a half<br/>The games we used to play were just for a laugh<br/>As we grew up together, I never dreamed you'd ever<br/>Leave your family, your old time friends and me<br/>Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you<br/>She's baked an apple pie the way she used to<br/>Come back Billie Jo, she longs to see you<br/>You could be here in no time if you choose to!<br/>You always were an independent girl<br/>But you have time enough to see the world<br/>Oh, come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you<br/>And everyone knows I need you too!<br/>Oh, she's baked an apple pie the way she used to<br/>Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you<br/>And everyone knows I need you too!<br/>Yeah, everyone knows I need you too!<br/>(Come back Billie Jo)<br/><br/>Songwriters: Tony Macaulay / Mitch Murray
