Lyrics

Hold that train, conductor
Please, don't let that engineer start
Yes, hold that train, conductor
Please don't let that engineer start
Well, I wanna ride your train this morning, just to ease my achin' heart
Yes, for the last few mornings lately, before I get out of my bed
Yes, for the last few mornings lately, before I get out of my bed
Well, I hear your whistle moanin'
And it almost drives me out of my head
I'll pay my fare when we starts rollin'
All your money's right here in my pants
Yes, I'll pay my fare when we starts rollin'
All your money's right here in my pants
Well, I know I should back and buy a ticket
Yes, but I'm afraid to take the chance
Oh, don't stop this train, conductor, 'til this old state is out of sight
Yes, don't stop this train, conductor, 'til Mississippi is out of sight
Well, you know I'm going to California, where I, know my baby will treat me right
