Featuring: Louis Armstrong

[Instrumental introduction, featuring cornet.]


[Vocal intro:]
I'm so unhappy,

I feel so blue.
I always feel so sad.
I made a mistake

Right from the start.
Oh, it seems so hard to part.
Oh, but this letter

That I will write,
I hope he will remember,
When he receive' it.


[Verse 1:]
Seeee see, rider.

See what you done done.
Lawd, lawd, lawd. 1
Made me love you,

Now your girl done come.
You made me love you,
Now your gal done come.


[Verse 2:]
I'm go'n away, baby,

Won't be back till fall.
Lawd, lawd, lawd.
Go'n away, baby,

Won't be back till fall.
If I find me a good man,
I won't be back at all.


[Verse 3:]
I'm gonna buy me a pistol,

Just as long as I am tall.
Lawd, lawd, lawd.
Gonna kill my man and,

Catch the Cannonball. 2
If he don't have me,
He won't have no gal at all.
