Write me a few of your lines
When you get home little baby
Write me a few of your lines
That'll be consolation
Lord Honey oh my worried mind
Left my baby
Standin' in the backdoor cryin'
Well I left my little baby
Standing in the backdoor cryin'
I never felt so sorry
Lord Honey till he said goodbye
Kokomo me baby
Kokomo me right
Kokomo your mama,
She'll be back tomorrow night
I'd like to cry in your arms tonight
Baby don't you wanna go?
Right on to Lemon Light City
Sweet home Kokomo
Go on down to the river baby
Goin' to sit down on the ground
Well I'm goin' down to the river baby
Goin' to sit down on the ground
And let the way of the water
Lord Honey wash my troubles down
Kokomo me baby
Kokomo me right
Kokomo your mama,
She'll be back tomorrow night
I gotta cry with you baby
Baby don't you wanna go?
Right on to Lemon Light City
Sweet home Kokomo

Bonnie Lynn Raitt (; born November 8, 1949) is an American blues rock singer, guitarist, and songwriter. In 1971, Raitt released her self-titled debut album. Following this, she released a series of critically acclaimed roots-influenced albums that incorporated elements of blues, rock, folk, and country. She was also a frequent session player and collaborator with other artists, including Warren Zevon, Little Feat, Jackson Browne, the Pointer Sisters, John Prine, and Leon Russell.
In 1989, after several years of limited commercial success, she had a major hit with her tenth studio album, Nick of Time, which included the song of the same name. The album reached number one on the Billboard 200 chart, and won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. It has since been selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry. Her following two albums, Luck of the Draw (1991) and Longing in Their Hearts (1994), were multimillion sellers, generating several hit singles, including "Something to Talk About", "Love Sneakin' Up On You", and the ballad "I Can't Make You Love Me" (with Bruce Hornsby on piano). Her 2022 single "Just Like That" won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year.
As of 2023, Raitt has received 13 competitive Grammy Awards, from 30 nominations, as well as a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. She ranked No. 50 on Rolling Stone's list of the "100 Greatest Singers of All Time" and ranked No. 89 on the magazine's list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time." Australian country music artist Graeme Connors has said "Bonnie Raitt does something with a lyric no one else can do; she bends it and twists it right into your heart."
In 2000, Raitt was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She has received the Icon Award from the Billboard Women in Music Awards and the MusiCares Person of the Year Award from The Recording Academy.
