San Francisco Bay Blues — текст песни (Janis Joplin)

Got the blues from my baby
Left me by the San Francisco Bay.
This big ocean liner took her so far away.
Didn`t mean to treat her so bad
She was the best girl I ever have had.
She said good-bye, and she made me cry
I`m gonna lay right down and die.

Well, I ain`t got a nickel and I ain`t got a lousy dime.
If she don`t come back I think I`m gonna lose my mind.
If she ever comes back to stay,
Well, that`ll be another brand new day,
Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay.

Sittin` in my back door
Wondering which way to go
That woman I`m so crazy about
She don`t love me no more.
Lord, I think I`ll grab a freight train
Because I`m feeling blue,
Ride all the way to the end of the line
Thinking only about you.

Well, meanwhile in another city
Just about to go insane
Thought I heard my baby
The way she used called my name.
If she ever comin` back to stay
Well, that`ll be another brand new day
Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
(I really mean it!)
Oh, walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay, whew!!
