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 him so bad,
He was the best guy I ever have had,
He 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.
He don’t come back,
think I’m going to lose my mind.
If he 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 man I’m so crazy about,
He 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 he used to call my name.
If I ever get him 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.
