[Verse 1] I don't want you, mean mama There ain't no use you hanging around For I found me another mama And now I am Chicago bound [Chorus] You've been fooling me, baby You've been telling me your lies When I thought you were an angel Just sent down from the skies [Verse 2] Sing those parting blues to me, sweet Nell
When you leave you'll leave me sad Because my daddy's gone and left me I just wouldn't treat him right [Chorus] [Verse 3] I wouldn't give him much loving Wouldn't stay home at night Now I hear the train a-coming He has gone out of sight [Chorus]
