Birmingham Daddy

(앨범: Blues Singer 1929-1931 - 1996)

Yonder comes a train, a Frisco train
Coming down the railroad track
I'm a-going away, a-leaving today
It ain't gonna bring me back
I'm a-leaving you, good mama
An' I ain't never coming back
(Yodelahee)

I'm a-leaving town, my baby turned me down
Going back to New Orleans
I'm looking for a gal, a brand new gal
I ain't never seen
I'm a-looking for me a mama
Lord, I ain't never seen
(Yodelahee)

If love was liquor, and I could drink
I'd be drunk all the time
I'd go back to town, in Birmingham
With a loving mama go mine
I'd go back to Birmingham
With a loving gal go mine
(Yodelahee)

If you got a good gal, a good ol' gal
You sure better keep her at home
Cause a red-headed mama
Yes, Sir, boy
I can't leave her alone
Yes, a red-headed mama
I sure can't leave her alone
(Yodelahee)
