never no mo' blues

i'm just as blue as i can be

since susie said goodbye to me

my life is a failure

i see

and she won't be my gal

no mo'

no mo'

no mo'

no mo' - no mo'

i'll pack my things in a grip

take me a long ocean trip

out on a great big steam ship

she'll never see her daddy

no mo'

no mo' - no mo'

still i hate to say farewell

to my mammy and my sister lil

they're sure gonna cry

when i tell that i ain't comin' home

no mo'

no mo' - no mo'

i may be sorry someday

that i leave here and go away

but they need not ask me stay

for i'll never change my mind

no mo'

no mo' - no mo'

now whether i'm right or wrong

i'm gonna be gone before long

and then i'll hush this crazy song

and i never will sing

no mo'

no mo' - no mo'
