Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues/R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt. Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. Later she would become famous for her bottleneck-style guitar playing. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more...I think people must wonder how a white girl like me became a blues guitarist.

Kokomo Medley Lyrics
Bonnie Raitt
When you get home baby
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
