Steel Rail Blues |
Well I got my mail late last night A letter from a girl who found the time To write To her lonesome boy somewheres in the Night She sent me a railroad ticket too To take me to her lovin arms And the big steel rail gonna carry me Home to the one I love Well I bin out here many long days I havent found a place that I could call My own Not a two bit bed to lay my body on I bin stood up I bin shook down I bin dragged into the sand And the big steel rail gonna carry me Home to the one I love Ooooh oooo oo whu hu hoo Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo oo Well I bin up tight most every night Walkin along the streets of this old town Not a friend around to tell my troubles to My good old car she done broke down cause I drove it into the ground And the big steel rail gonna carry me Home to the one I love Well I look over yonder across the plain The big drive wheels are poundin along The ground Gonna get on board and Ill be homeward Bound Now I aint had a home cooked meal And lord I need one now And the big steel rail gonna carry me Home to the one I love Now here I am with my hat in hand Standin on the broad highway will you Give a ride To a lonesome boy who missed the train Last night I went in town for one last round And I gambled my ticket away And the big steel rail wont carry me Home to the one I love |
