"Columbus Stockade Blues" Lyrics

(Jimmie Davis - Eva Sargent)

Way down in Columbus G-e-o-r-g-i-a
Wanna be back in Tennessee
Way down in Columbus Stockade
All of my friends have turned their backs on me.

Go and leave me if you wish to
And never let me cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Well, leave me little darlin', I don't mind.

--- Instrumental ---

Last night as I lay sleepin'
I dreamed that you were in my arms
Then I found I was mistaken
I was peepin' through the bars.

So go on and leave me if you wish to
And never let me cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Well, leave me little darlin', I don't mind.

Go on and leave me little darlin', I don't mind.
Why don't you leave me little darlin', I don't mind...
