San Francisco Bay Blues
I got the blues from my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
An ocean liner took him so far away
Well, I didn't mean to treat him so bad
You know he was the best friend that I've ever had
You know when he said goodbye
Likely to make me cry
And I've got to lay down and die
Oh, and I ain't got a nickle and I ain't got a lousy dime
And if he don't come back
I guess I'm gonna lose my mind
I guess I've got to lose my mind
And if he ever comes back to stay
It's got to be another brand new day
When I go walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
Meanwhile somewhere, in some other city
Oh boy, I'm just about to go out of my brain
And you know why?
Because I thought I heard my baby call me
The way he used to call my name
And if he ever comes back to stay
It's got to be another brand new day
When I go walking with my baby
Talkin' to my baby
Singin' to my baby
Oh, and a-clingin' to my baby, yeah, yeah
When I go walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
An ocean liner took him so far away
Well, I didn't mean to treat him so bad
You know he was the best friend that I've ever had
You know when he said goodbye
Likely to make me cry
And I've got to lay down and die
Oh, and I ain't got a nickle and I ain't got a lousy dime
And if he don't come back
I guess I'm gonna lose my mind
I guess I've got to lose my mind
And if he ever comes back to stay
It's got to be another brand new day
When I go walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
Meanwhile somewhere, in some other city
Oh boy, I'm just about to go out of my brain
And you know why?
Because I thought I heard my baby call me
The way he used to call my name
And if he ever comes back to stay
It's got to be another brand new day
When I go walking with my baby
Talkin' to my baby
Singin' to my baby
Oh, and a-clingin' to my baby, yeah, yeah
When I go walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
