Lyrics Bobbie Gentry – Papa, Won’t You Let Me Go To Town With You?

Papa won’t you let me go to town with you
Papa I’m feeling so down and blue
You just gotta come around, please do
Papa won’t you let me go to town with you

There’s a blue dress at Dindy’s I’d give the world to see again
I need some hand lotion and some powder from the five and ten
Buy us some chocolate and I’ll make you a pretty pie
If ya don’t let me go I’ll just die

Papa won’t you let me go to town with you
Papa I’m feeling so down and blue
You just gotta come around, please do
Papa won’t you let me go to town with you

I gotta pick up a pattern, Aunt Nora’s making me a dress
I scrubbed it this morning, what d’ya mean this floor’s a mess?
I done everythiing you said, and then some ya didn’t say to do
You just gotta take me with you

Papa won’t you let me go to town with you
Papa I’m feeling so down and blue
You just gotta come around, please do
Papa won’t you let me go to town with you

Looky here papa I found your other Sunday shoe
I shined it and I shined it till it looks all brand spankin’ new
Seems like a year I’ve been waiting for today
If you let me go I won’t get in your way

Papa won’t you let me go to town with you
Papa I’m feeling so down and blue
You just gotta come around, please do
Papa won’t you let me go to town with you
