Lyrics:

[Intro]
December 12 1955
The one and only, Guitar Slim
You are there

[Verse 1]
You're packed you're ready to leave me
And Lord knows I'm about to die
You're packed you're ready to leave me
And good Lord knows I'm about to die
But just before you leave me darling
Please give me something to remember you by

[Verse 2]
My days are gonna be lonely
And all night long I'm gonna cry
My days are gonna be lonely
And all night long I'm gonna cry
Well maybe I could feel a little better baby
If you please leave me with something to remember you by

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
I hear your train coming, baby
And soon pretty soon you're gonna be saying goodbye
I hear your train coming, baby
And pretty soon you're gonna be saying goodbye
But please have mercy on me baby
So please leave me something to remember you by
