My right foot itches : something going on wrong
My right foot itching me : and I just can't stay here 
long
I thought I'd write : but it's the best to telephone
For that fast mail train : can carry your sugar so far 
from home
Girl I can't live right : ain't going to try no more
This woman's left town : and she ain't coming back no 
more
I went to the depot : and I set my suitcase down
I thought about my baby : and tears come rolling down
I said ticket agent : how long your train been gone
Say yon go the train : that this fair brown left here on
I couldn't buy [me] no ticket : but I walked on to the 
door
Well my baby left town : she ain't coming here no more
I got up this morning : my sure?enough on my mind
I had to raise a conversation with the landlady : to keep 
from crying
Excuse me woman : I won't say that no more
I'm fixing to leave town : and hang crepe on your door
