This Ain't My Home
This ain't my home anymore
I've been sleeping on the floor
Count the days and cigarettes I've smoked
Honey if you please, won't you let me leave?
Darlin' I'm not laughin' at the joke.
Well, Ann-Marie don't you see?
Now my honey what you're doin' to me
You hate my guts and you let it show,
Well, darlin' don't you know?
This ain't my home anymore
I've been sleeping on the floor
Count the days and cigarettes I've smoked
Honey if you please, won't you let me leave?
Darlin' I'm not laughin' at the joke.
Remember me? The same old used to be.
Well, buttin' heads and lovin' hearts, darlin' don't you see?
Runnin' round on your old Greyhound.
Well, I done killed what I found.
This ain't my home anymore
I've been sleeping on the floor
Count the days and cigarettes I've smoked
Honey if you please now won't you let me leave?
Darlin' I'm not laughin' at the joke.
This ain't my home anymore,
I'm walkin' out your door.
Count the days until we meet again
When you walk on by, I'mma hang my head and cry
Thinkin' of when we once shared a bed.
I'll be thinkin' of when we once shared a bed.

San Francisco Bay Blues
I've got the blues for my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
Well, ocean liner she gone so far away
Well, I didn't mean to treat her so bad
She was the best gal I ever did have
Now she, she make me mad, wanna make me cry,
I wanna lay down and die.
I ain't got a nickel, I ain't got a lousy dime
Lord you know, I'm just about to lose my mind
Well, you ever come back to stay,
It's gonna be a brand new day,
I'll be walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
Well, sittin' on my back porch baby,
Now I'm wonderin' which way to go
The woman I'm so crazy about,
No she don't love me no more
I think I'll catch me a freight train, because I'm feelin' blue
Well, I'mma ride all the way to the end of the line thinkin' only of you.
Meanwhile, in another city I'm just about to go insane
I thought I heard the woman of mine,
The way she used to call my name.
If you ever come back to stay,
It's gonna be a brand new day,
Well, I'll be walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
Yes, I'll be talkin' with my honey down by the San Francisco Bay
Well, I'll be spendin' all my money down by the San Francisco Bay.

Topeka
With the Mississippi rollin' by my window
Iowa goes crawlin' to my right
And though I can't keep from thinkin'
From Davenport to Lincoln,
Drink and drink, I'mma fuss an' fight,
Where's my little baby gonna sleep tonight?
At 3am we'll be in Kansas City,
One more smoke and then it's to Topeka,
And if you think I'm tryin, to quit my no good lyin,
Darlin' you'll be hangin' by a thread.
Dance with me beside those Rockie Mountains
Underneath that Colorado moon
Leanin' on your shoulder from Castle Rock to Boulder
Stay with me, I'mma treat you right even if for just one more night.
If you see me starin' out your window
One more drink and then it's to Topeka
If you ask where I'm goin' I'll say cigarettes, beer and Motrin
Darlin' you'll be hangin' by a thread.
You can be the angel or devil you are
Sleepin' all day like a jaguar
Now, pullin' on my hair, stompin' on my toes
Blowin' me kisses or burnin' my clothes,
Well, said don't you see my dear old Ann-Marie,
Darlin' you'd be better off alone.
With the Mississippi rollin' by my window
Iowa goes crawlin' to my right,
Though I can't keep from thinkin, from Davenport to Lincoln,
Drink and drink, I'mma fuss and fight,
Where's my little baby gonna sleep tonight?
At 3am we'll be in Kansas City,
One more smoke, and then it's to Topeka,
If you think I'm trying, to quit my no good lyin,
Darlin' you know you'll be hangin' by a thread.
Darlin' you know you'll be hangin' by a thread.
