(Jesse Fuller)
|
I got the blues from my baby left me by the San Francisco Bay,
|
The ocean liner's gone so far away.
|
Didn't mean to treat her so bad, she was the best girl I ever have had,
|
She said goodbye, I can take a cry, I want to lay down and die.
|
|
I ain't got a nickel and I ain't got a lousy dime.
|
She don't come back, think I'm going to lose my mind.
|
If she ever gets back to stay, it's going to be another brand new day,
|
Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay.
|
|
Sitting down looking from my back door, wondering which way to go,
|
The woman I'm so crazy about, she don't love me no more.
|
Think I'll catch me a freight train, 'cause I'm feeling blue,
|
And ride all the way to the end of the line, thinking only of you.
|
|
Meanwhile, in another city, just about to go insane,
|
Thought I heard my baby, Lord, the way she used to call my name.
|
If I ever get her back to stay, it's going to be another brand new day,
|
Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay.
|
|
Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay.
|
Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay.
