Suicide Blues

I go downtown Lay by the railroad tracks I'm gonna go downtown Lay down by the railroad tracks You see I don't want nothin' Since my baby, she ain't comin' back My lady she's gone Took all my reason to live My baby she gone Took all my reason to live Since she don't want me I got nothin' left to give She won't see me Won't pick up the telephone I wonder if she knows She's the reason that I'll be gone Lay in my bed Stare at the ceiling for a while I'm gonna lay in my bed Stare at the ceiling for a while My baby gonna miss me My lady gonna miss me when I die She won't see me Won't pick up the telephone I wonder if she knows She's the reason that I'll be gone Got my pills Got my bottle of gin I'm gonna swallow my pills Swallow my bottle of gin When I close my eyes I won't see the sun again She won't see me Won't pick up the telephone I wonder if she knows She's the reason that I'll be gone Get me a gun Go back into my room I'm gonna get me a gun One with a barrel or two You know I'm better off dead than Singing these suicide blues
