San Francisco Bay Blues Lyrics

[00:04.80] I got the blues from my baby left me down by the Frisco Bay;
[00:12.44] An ocean liner took her so far away
[00:17.22] I didn't mean to treat her so bad, best gal I ever have had;
[00:22.48] She said good-bye, she like to make me cry
[00:25.51] Made me wanna lay down my head and die
[00:30.04] Well I ain't got a nickel, and I ain't got a lousy dime?
[00:34.52] She don't come back, I think I'm gonna lose my mind
[00:37.84] She ever comes back to stay, it's gonna be another brand new day
[00:42.41] Walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
[00:47.66]
[01:27.14] Well, I'm sittin' here on the back porch, don't know which way to go;
[01:31.78] Woman I'm so crazy about, she don't want me no more
[01:36.51] Think I'm gonna take a freight train, cause I'm feelin' blue
[01:41.69] Ride all the way to the end of the line, thinkin' only of you
[01:46.38] Meanwhile, in another city, just about to go insane
[01:51.06] Sound like I heard my baby, the way she used to call my name
[01:55.54] If you come back to stay, it's gonna be another brand new day
[02:00.49] Walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
[03:18.84]
