Got the blues when my baby left me by the San Francisco Bay Ocean liner, she’s gone so far away Didn’t mean to treat her so bad She was the best girl that I ever had Said goodbye, made me cry Want to lay down and die Ain’t got a nickel, I ain’t got a lousy dime If she don’t come back I think I’m going to lose my mind If she ever come back to stay, it’ll be another brand new day Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay Sitting down on my back step wond’ring which way to go Girl that I’m crazy ‘bout She don’t want me no more Think I’ll take a freight train ‘cause I’m feeling blue Ride all the way to the end of the line thinking only of you Meanwhile in another city, just about to fo inasne thought I heard my baby, the way she used to call my name If she ever come back to stay, it’ll be another brand new day Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
