Railroad steamboat river and cannal Yonder Comes A Sucker and he's got my girl
And she's gone gone gone and she's gone gone gone and I'll bid her my last farewell

I fell in love with a pretty little thing I thought that wedding bells would ring
She was as sweet as she could be till I found out what she did to me

Now I won't cry my life away some other sucker will have to pay
And when he finds that she is gone I bet I'll hear him sing this song
