Why don't you call your mother more than you do?
She lies awake at night and cries for you
Why don't you write a letter?
Or maybe even better
Take the morning train and head for home, again
Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you
She's made an apple pie the way she used to
Come back Billie Jo, she longs to see you
You could be here in no time if you choose to
You always were an independent girl
But you've had time enough to see the world, so
Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you
And Lord knows, I need you too
When you were seventeen you kissed me goodbye
You caught the train to meet some big city guy
You say you're doing fine
Your sad voice on the line
Gives it all away, there's just one thing to say, woah
Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you
She's made an apple pie the way she used to
Come back Billie Jo, she longs to see you
You could be here in no time if you choose to
She lies awake at night and cries for you
Why don't you write a letter?
Or maybe even better
Take the morning train and head for home, again
Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you
She's made an apple pie the way she used to
Come back Billie Jo, she longs to see you
You could be here in no time if you choose to
You always were an independent girl
But you've had time enough to see the world, so
Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you
And Lord knows, I need you too
When you were seventeen you kissed me goodbye
You caught the train to meet some big city guy
You say you're doing fine
Your sad voice on the line
Gives it all away, there's just one thing to say, woah
Come back Billie Jo, your mama needs you
She's made an apple pie the way she used to
Come back Billie Jo, she longs to see you
You could be here in no time if you choose to
