The Train Blues

Whenever I hear a train whistle blow

I've got to tell you I feel kind of low

Unless I've got a ticket and I can ride

I want to follow the track, I've got a hunger inside

Old steam engine, stay on the track

Take me there and bring me back

Love to see those big wheels roll

Roll all over the country, it's so good for my soul

May have to follow to Alaska

But you can take me to a north border town

Maybe he'll go south to Texas

And he does, train, take me right down

Maybe my baby has a notion

To live on a traffic isle

Well you can take me right down to the ocean

And in Hawaii, I'll see baby smile

Yes train, yes train

Take me to the east, take me to the west

Take me to the place my baby loved the best

Engineer, I love to hear that whistle

Mm train, I love to hear you wail

Go train, I know my love will be waiting

Hear now, I can hear the man call

Oh yes train, go train

Oh my train, mm train

Yes train, go train

Mm train, yes train
