Anniversary (blue Yodel No. 7) Songtext

I was a stranger passing through your town I was a stranger passing through your town Well I asked you a favor good gal you turned me down You may see me out a walking walking down that railroad track You may see me out a walking walking down that railroad track But good gal you done me wrong I ain't never coming back I've rode that old Southern I've rode that L & N I've rode that old Southern I've rode that L & N And if the police don't get I'm gonna ride them again Some like Chicago some love Memphis Tennessee Some like Chicago some love Memphis Tennessee Hey pretty mama give me sweet Dallas Texas Where the women think the world of me I'm not singing the blues I'm just tellin' you the hard luck I've had I'm not singing the blues I'm just tellin' you the hard luck I've had Cause the blues ain't nothing but a good man feeling bad
