Railroad Lullaby

Do you remember when I told you

That I had a tale to tell?

Let me regale you, child

About a life spent on the rail

Forget me not, don't forget it

'Cause I'll be gone in a minute

And whenever the drugstore man

Used to come around

I'd bite my lip

And then I'd take myself to town

Forget me not, don't forget it

'Cause I'll be gone in a minute

Don't call me no more, no more

Nobody ever needs ya

When you're this far gone

Now you say the train's a'comin'

But I don't see it on the track

Last train's eleven

And it ain't comin' back

Forget me not
