Lyrics

Ooh
Now where was you when the train left town
I’s standing on the corner with my head hung down
Hey that train that carried my girl from town
Hey hey hey hey
I wish to the Lord that the train would wreck
Kill that engineer and break the fireman’s neck
Hey that train that carried my girl from town
Hey hey hey hey
Rations on the table and the coffee’s getting cold
Some dirty rounder stole my jelly roll
Hey that train that carried my girl from town
Hey hey hey hey
There goes my girl somebody bring her back
She got her hand in my money sack
Hey that train that carried my girl from town
Hey hey hey hey woo
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Show me the woman that a man can trust
Hey that train that carried my girl from town
Hey hey hey hey
Hey that train that carried my girl from town
Hey hey hey hey
