2. Sittin' down lookin' from the back door Wonderin' which way to go
Woman I'm so crazy 'bout she don't love me no more
Think I'll catch me a freight train cause I'm feelin' blue
Ride all the way to the end of the line thinkin' only you

Meanwhile livin' in the cityJust about to go insane
All I heard my baby Lord wishin' you would call my name
If I ever get back to stay it's gonna be another brand new day
Walkin with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay 
Walkin with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay 
Yeah, walkin with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay
