Water Coast Blues

I've got a gal in Dallas
Got one down on the water coast
I've got a little gal down in Dallas
I've got one down on the water coast
Sometime I get to thinkin'
Wonderin' which one o' them little girls I love the most

Hear me settin' down in Chicago
I've got Houston on my mind
Hear me settin' down in Chicago
I still got Houston on my mind
I get to thinkin' 'bout my baby
Lord and I just can't keep from crying

I say I love my baby
But my baby won't behave
I say I love my baby
God but my baby just won't behave
I'm gonna get me a hard-shootin' pistol
And put her down in a lonesome grave
