Lyrics
(Traditional)
Good morning, mr. railroad man What time do your trains roll by ? "At 9:16 and 2:44 and 25 minutes 'till 5" "At 9:16 and 2:44 and 25 minutes 'till 5" Thank you, mr. railroad man I want to watch your trains go by
Standing on a platform, smoking a cheap cigar And waiting for an old freight train that carries an empty car Well, I pulled my hat down over my eyes And I walked across the tracks And I caught me the end of an old freight train And I never did come back
Well, I sat down in a gamblin' game But I could not play my hand I was thinkin' about the woman I loved Run away with another man, poor boy Run away with another man I was thinking about the woman that I loved Run away with another man
