Bad Luck Blues

I want to go home : and I ain't got sufficient clothes
I bet my money : and I lost it Lord it's dough

I'll never bet : on this old trey game no more

Oh my ??? *gambler's* gone : why don't you quit crying
That joker stole off : with that long‑haired brown of mine

Sister you catch the Katy : I'll catch that Santa Fe
When you get to Denver : pretty mama look around for me

The woman I love : why she's five feet from the ground
She's a tailor‑made woman : she ain't no hand‑me‑down

I ain't seen my sugar : in two long weeks today
Girl it's been so long : seems like my heart going to break

I'm going to run across town : catch that southbound Santa Fe
Be on my way : to what you call loving Tennessee
