Never No Mo' Blues

(Jimmie Rodgers - Elsie McWilliams)



I'm just as blue as I can be

Since Susie said goodbye to me

My life is a failure I see

And she won't be my gal no mo', no mo', no mo'.



I'll pack my things in a grip

Take me a long ocean trip

Out on the great big steamship

She'll never see her daddy no mo', no mo', no mo'.



Still I hate to say farewell

To my mammy and my sister Nell

Then she'll gonna cry when I tell

That I ain't comin' home no mo', no mo', no mo'.



--- Instrumental ---



I may be sorry someday

That I leave here and go away

But they need not ask me to stay

For I'll never change my mind no mo', no mo', no mo'.



Now whether I'm right or wrong

I'm gonna be gone before long

And then I'll hush this crazy song

And I never will sing no mo', no mo', no mo'...
