Eric Clapton - San Francisco Bay Blues lyrics

(by jesse fuller)<br><br>I got the blues from my baby left me by the san francisco bay,<br>The ocean liner's gone so far away.<br>Didn't mean to treat her so bad, she was the best girl I ever have had,<br>She said goodbye, I can take a cry, I want to lay down and die.<br><br>I ain't got a nickel and I ain't got a lousy dime.<br>She don't come back, think I'm going to lose my mind.<br>If she ever gets back to stay, it's going to be another brand new day,<br>Walking with my baby down by the san francisco bay.<br><br>Sitting down looking from my back door,<br>Wondering which way to go,<br>The woman I'm so crazy about, she don't love me no more.<br>Think I'll catch me a freight train, 'cause I'm feeling blue,<br>And ride all the way to the end of the line, thinking only of you.<br><br>Meanwhile, in another city,<br>Just about to go insane,<br>Thought I heard my baby, lord, the way she used to call my name.<br>If I ever get her back to stay, it's going to be another brand new day,<br>Walking with my baby down by the san francisco bay,<br>Walking with my baby down by the san francisco bay,<br>Walking with my baby down by the san francisco bay.
