Lyrics:

Railroad, steamboat, river and canal Yonder comes a sucker, and he's got my gal 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 sweet could be 'Till I found out what she did to me Railroad, steamboat, river and canal Yonder comes a sucker, and he's got my gal And she's gone, gone, gone And she's gone, gone, gone And I'll bid her my last farewell I asked her mother to let her go She whispered, Mother, please tell him no Though he may think that I am true There're plenty more who think so too Railroad, steamboat, river and canal Yonder comes a sucker, and he's got my gal And she's gone, gone, gone And she's gone, gone, gone And I'll bid her my last farewell Now I won't cry my life away Some other sucker will have to pay And when he finds that she is gone I guess I'll hear him sing this song Railroad, steamboat, river and canal Yonder comes a sucker, and he's got my gal And she's gone, gone, gone And she's gone, gone, gone And I'll bid her my last farewell
