Intro:
A
[Verse 1]
AWell in the heat of the day, down in Mobile, Alabama
AWorking on the railroad with a steel driving hammer
DI Got to get some money, buy some brand new shoes
ATry to find somebody take away these blues
EShe don't love me here, I'm singing in the sun
APayday's coming when my work is all done
A D A E A
[Verse 2]
AWell later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
AAll day I've been waiting for the whistle to blow
DSitting in a tee-pee built right on the track
ARolling them bones 'till the foreman come back
EPick up your belongings boys and scatter about
AWe got an off scheduled train coming two miles out
A D A E A
[Verse 3]
AEverybody's scrambling and jumping around
APicking up the money, tear the teep-pee down
DForeman was in panic, 'bout to go insane
ATrying to get the workers out the way of the train
EEngineer blowing the whistle long and long
ACan't stop the train we got to let it roll on
A D A E A
