INTRO . . .
I feel so bad I got a wor-ried mind
I`m so lone-some all the time
Since I left my ba-by be-hind
on Blue Bay-ou
Sav-ing nick-els, sav-ing dimes
Work-ing 'til the sun don't shine
Look-ing for-ward to hap-pi-er times
on Blue Bay-ou
I'm go-ing back some day
come what may to Blue Bay-ou
- - Where you sleep all day and
the Cat-fish play on Blue Bay-ou
- - Oh those fish-ing boats
with their sails a-float
If I could on-ly see that
fa-mil-iar sun-rise
through sleep-y eyes
How hap-py I'd be
Oh, to see my ba-by a-gain
and to be with some of my friends
May-be I'd be hap-py a-gain
on Blue Bay-ou
I'm go-ing back some day
Gon-na stay on Blue Bay-ou
- Where the folks are fine
and the world is mine
on Blue Bay-ou
Oh, that girl of mine by my side
The sil-ver moon and the eve-ning tide
Oh, some sweet day gon-na
take a-way this hurt-in' in-side
I'll nev-er be blue
My dreams - come true
on Blue Bay-ou
