[ti:San Francisco Bay Blues] [ar:The Staple Singers] [al:Vanguard Visionaries] [offset:0] [00:00.21]San Francisco Bay Blues - The Staple Singers [00:11.94]I got the blues from my baby left me by the San Francisco Bay, [00:14.75] [00:17.62]The ocean liner's gone so far away. [00:18.02] [00:22.21]Didn't mean to treat her so bad, she was the best girl I ever have had, [00:27.29]She said goodbye, I can take a cry, I want to lay down and die. [00:32.47]I ain't got a nickel and I ain't got a lousy dime. [00:34.78] [00:37.65]She don't come back, think I'm going to lose my mind. [00:40.39] [00:42.58]If she ever gets back to stay, it's going to be another brand new day, [00:46.95] [00:48.01]Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay. [00:50.31] [01:13.28]Sitting down looking from my back door, [01:16.00]Wondering which way to go, [01:17.12] [01:19.06]The woman I'm so crazy about, she don't love me no more. [01:22.36] [01:23.67]Think I'll catch me a freight train, 'cause I'm feeling blue, [01:27.22] [01:28.79]And ride all the way to the end of the line, thinking only of you. [01:32.34] [01:33.78]Meanwhile, in another city, [01:34.90] [01:36.46]Just about to go insane, [01:37.52] [01:38.90]Thought I heard my baby, Lord, the way she used to call my name. [01:43.95]If I ever get her back to stay, it's going to be another brand new day, [01:48.13] [01:49.38]Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay, [01:51.69] [01:54.38]Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay, [01:56.93] [01:59.37]Walking with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay.
