Im Leaving Here Blues by Ida Cox Lyrics

[Verse]
When your good man turns you down
And say he's leavin' town
It hurts your heart to hear him say goodbye
You're disgusted and you're broke
Your life seems like a joke
You go to the station with teardrops in your eyes
You hear the whistle blow
How you long to go

[Chorus]
You've got them leavin' here blues, but you ain't got no leavin' here fare
You feel like traveling and you don't care where
Your heart is sad, you feel so bad
Thinkin' about the good man you once had
Then you go get your head chuck full of booze
Try to drive away them leavin' here blues
Them lonesome leavin' here blues

[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
You've got them leavin' here blues, but you ain't got no leavin' here fare
You feel like traveling and you don't care where
Your heart is sad, you feel so bad
Thinkin' about the good man you once had
Then you go get your head chuck full of booze
Try to drive away them leaving here blues
Them lonesome leavin' here blues
