Lyrics
First train headin' south
I didn't know my baby loved me so until that letter come to let me know Now I pack my bags and then I'll go and catch the first train I see headin'south
If I got this letter in idaho where snow's so deep it wouldn't let me go I'd went hog wild and melted all that snow And caught the first train I saw headin' south If I got this letter in iowa nothing in this world could make me stay I'd grab my hat and then been on my way and caught the first train I saw headin' south I didn't know my baby loved me so until that letter come to let me know Now I pack my bags and then I'll go and catch the first train I see headin'south
[ guitar ]
I didn't know my baby loved me so until that letter come to let me know Now I'll pack my bags and then I'll go and catch the first train I see headin' south
If i'd got this letter in ohio with a busted back, two arms and broken toe There'd be no hesitation I would go and catch the first train I saw headin'south But I got this letter up in maine you can bet your bottom dollar I feel the same Every clickety-clack of drivers call her name As I ride this first train I caught headin' south I didn't know my baby loved me so until that letter come to let me know Now I pack my bags and then I'll go and catch the first train I see headin'south
