Boxcar Willie - Whine whistle whine

Well, I ^Dhopped aboard a southbound freight, and hid behind a packin' crate, and settled back to catch me forty ^Emwinks. Got to ^Gthinkin' about my ^Agoodbye note, and ^Gworryin' about the ^Awords I wrote, and ^Gwonderin' what that ^A7woman's goin' to ^Dthink.

^DShe'd a made a darn good wife, and had me workin' nine to five, but thats what made this rambling feelin' ^Emgrow. And ^Gfreezin' 'neath an ^Aold tin hat, ain't ^Gexactly where ^Ait's all at, when the ^Gsun is shining ^A7bright in Mexi^Dco.

So ^Gwhine, you whistle, ^Dwhine. ^AKeepin' moving me on the further down that ^Dline. ^GWhine, you whistle, ^Dwhine. There's a ^Amemory tryin' to ^A7catch up with my ^Dmind.

^DLeavin' never hurt before, but something's right outside that door, and calls my name with every mile of ^Emtrack. This ^Glonley feeling ^Adeep inside, is ^Gmaking it so ^Ahard to ride, and ^Gnow and then I'll ^A7catch me lookin' ^Dback.

So ^Gwhine, you whistle, ^Dwhine. ^AKeepin' moving me on the further down that ^Dline. ^GWhine, you whistle, ^Dwhine. There's a ^Amemory tryin' to ^A7catch up with my ^Dmind.
