Springtime Blues

Now, baby but I'll see you
 Baby, in the spring
 Just after the bluebird begin to sing
 A-but sail on
 Yes, sail on
 Oh my little baby, sail on
 Now, but maybe I won't see you
 Baby, until in the fall
 An I know you won't have no
 Real reg'lar man, at all
 Oh, but sail on
 Yes, sail on
 A-my little baby, sail on
 Now, but I b'lieve I'll wait an see you
 Baby, some ol' rainy day
 Just after the mock'inbird
 Come out to play
 A-but sail on now
 Yes, sail on
 Oh my little baby, sail on
 Now you gon' keep on
 Baby you know, foolin' round
 A-you know the police
 Is gonna run you clean outta town
 A-now but sail on
 Yes, sail on
 A-my little baby, sail on
 Now tell me, baby
 What do you want me to do?
 I did ev'rything I could, baby
 To try to get along wit'ch you
 A-now but sail on now
 Yes, sail on
 My little baby, sail on
 Go bring my shotgun
 My pistols and shells
 You know my woman, she done quit me
 An I'm gonna start to raise
 (You know what I mean, man!)
 A-but, sail on
 Yes, sail on
 A-my little baby, sail on.
