Going Away Blues by Lottie Kimbrough Lyrics

I'm going away, it won't be long
I know you'll miss me from singing this lonesome song
I'm going away, won't be long
And then you know you must have done me wrong

My daddy got ways like a baby child
Those doggone ways are driving me wild
Those doggone ways are driving me wild
And that is why you never see poor Lottie smile

My heart aches so I can't be satisfied
I believe I'll take a train and a ride
I believe I'll take a train and a ride
'Cause I miss my cruel daddy from my side

I've got Cadillac ways, got some super ideas
I can't see what brought me here
I can't see what brought me here
It must have been this new canned city beer

I'm lame and blind, can't hardly see
My doggone daddy turned his back on me
'Cause I'm lame, I can't hardly see
I ain't got nobody to really comfort me
