"Come Home With Me Baby" came off Nude, Dead or Alive's fourth studio album, and went out as a single on May 17, 1989: the second from the record in Britain and Japan, but the one that led the charge in America. Pete Burns wrote the words and shared the music with Steve Coy, and Bruce Robbins engineered and mixed it, before Jay Burnett re-recorded and remixed it for the single.

At home it fared no better than "Turn Around and Count 2 Ten", but it topped the US Dance Club chart, the second of their two number ones there. Epic pushed it with two twelve-inch versions, an extended take on Burnett's mix and a remix by Rique 'Billy Bob' Alonso and Miami DJ Lewis A. Martinee, and the B-sides came from Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know: "I'll Save You All My Kisses" and "I Want You".
