Well my Mama told me, my Papa told me too |
|
Now my Mama told me, Papa told me too |
|
That I shouldn't be here tryin' to sing these railroad blues |
|
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said |
|
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said |
|
And I wouldn't be here tryin' to sleep in this cold iron bed |
|
I went to the depot, Never got there on time |
|
Went down to the depot, never got there on time |
|
My train done left, she's rollin' down the line |
|
Mister Jailer go away now, don't tell me no lies |
|
Mister Jailer go away, don't tell me no lies |
|
When the train run down, she's rollin' down the line |
|
Well my Mama told me, my Papa told me too |
|
Now my Mama told me, Papa told me too |
|
Well I shouldn't be here tryin' to sing these railroad blues |
|
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said |
|
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said |
|
And I wouldn't be here tryin' to sleep in this cold iron bed |
