Well I bin out here man long days I haven't found a place that I could call my own Not a two bit bed to lay my body on I bin stood up, I bin shock down I bin dragged into the sand And the big steel rail gonna carry me home To the one I love Refrain: Well I bin up tight nost every night Walkin' around the streets of this old town Not a friend around to tell my troubles to My old car; she done broke down 'Cause I drove it into the ground And the big steel rail gonna carry me home To the one I love Refrain: Well look over yonder across the plain The big drive wheels a-poundin' along the ground Gonna get on board and I'll be homeward bound Now I aint' had a home cooked meal And Lord I need one now And the big steel rail gonna carry me home To the one I love Refrain: Now here I am with my hat in my hand Standin' on the broad highway, will you give a ride To a lonesome boy who missed the train last night I went in town for one last round And I gambled my ticket away And the big steel rail gonna carry me home To the one I love Refrain: Chords used: Am - x02210 C - 032010 C7 - 032310 Em - 022000 G7 - 320001 F - 132211
