Blue Yodel No. 2 [My Lovin' Gal Lucille] lyrics

If you ever had the blues, you know just how I feel

If you ever had the blues, you know just how I feel

I'm about to lose my lovin' gal, Lucille

(Yodeling)

I love you, woman, but I don't like your lowdown ways

I love you, woman, but I don't like your lowdown ways

You got me in trouble and now I'm served in days

(Yodeling)

Write me a letter, send it to me by mail

Write me a letter and send it to me by mail

Just send it to me, in care of the Birmingham jail

(Yodeling)

Well, I ain't gonna marry, no, I ain't gonna settle down

Lord, I ain't gonna marry, and I ain't gonna settle down

I'm gonna be a rounder till the police shoots me down

(Yodeling)

You can blow your whistle, mama, you can toot your horn

You can blow your whistle, mama, you can toot your horn

You're gonna wake up some morning and find your daddy gone

(Yodeling)
