Big Railroad Blues

Lyrics By: Noah Lewis Music By: Noah Lewis

Well my mama told me, my papa told me too Well my mama told me, my papa told me too Well I shouldn't be here trying to sing these railroad blues

Wish I had listened to oh what mama said Wish I had listened to oh what mama said Well I wouldn't be here trying to sleep in this cold iron bed

Well I went to the depot, I never got there on time Went down to the depot, never got there on time Well that train's rolling down, she's rolling down the line

Mister jailer go away now, don't tell me no lies Mister jailer go away now, don't tell me no lies Well that train's going down, she's rolling down the line

Well my mama told me, my papa told me too Well my mama told me, papa told me too Well I shouldn't be here trying to sing these railroad blues

Wish I had listened to oh what mama said Wish I had listened to oh what mama said Well I wouldn't be here trying to sleep in this cold iron bed
