Lyrics

And I'm goin' way down Winden Lord, I'm gonna try to leave here today Tell 'em I believe I'll find my way And that train is just that way Gotta go on that train I said I'd even broke my jaw job Boys, if you out and runnin' around in This world this train will wreck your mind Spoken: Your life, too Lord, I once was a hobo I crossed a many a point But I decided I'd go down the frog travelin' light And take it as it comes Spoken: I reckon' you know the fireman and the engineer would, too There are so many people have gone down today And this fast train north and southern traveling light and clear Ooh-ooh, I wanna ride your train I said, "Look here, engineer, can I ride your train?" He said, "Look here, You oughta know this train ain't mine and you're asking me in vain" Said, "You go to the Western Union, you might get a chance" Spoken: I didn't know the Western Union run no train Said, "You go to the Western Union, you might get a chance" You might get wire to some of your People and your fare will be sent right ahere Spoken: Hadn't thought that's the way it is I wanna go home, and that train is done gone dead I wanna go, that train is done gone dead I done lost my wife and my three Little children, and my mother's sick in bed Ooh-ooh please, help me win my fare 'Cause I'm a travelin' man, boys I can't stay here
