I'm going back to Tampa : to that girl I left behind
I'm going back to Tampa : just to kill my worried mind
Did you ever lie down at night : thinking about your 
brown
You commence rolling and tumbling : I guess I'm Tampa 
bound
The bridge washed out : the wire's all down
My gal is in the flood : and I'm Tampa bound
I got up this morning : put on my walking shoes
I'm going back to Tampa : just to kill my lowdown blues
