San Francisco Bay Blues Lyrics

I got my blues when my baby left me
By the San Francisco Bay
She's taken an ocean liner
And she's gone so far away
I didn't mean to treat her so bad
She's the best girl I ever have had
She said good-bye gonna make me cry
I'm gonna lay down and die

I haven't got a nickel
Ain't got a lousy dime
If she don't come back
I think I'm goona lose my mind
If she ever comes back to stay
There's gonna be another brand new day
Walkin' with my baby
Down by the San Francisco Bay

Sittin' down and lookin' through my back door
Wonderin' which way to go
Woman I'm so crazy about
She don't want me no more
Think I'll take me a freight train
Because I'm feelin' blue
Ride all the way to the end of the line
Thinkin' only of you

Meanwhile in another city
Just about to go insane
Seems like I heard my baby
The way she used to call my name
If she ever comes back to stay
There's gonna be another brand new day
Walkin' with my baby
Down by the San Francisco Bay
