Tuning: E A D G B E

^CIf you will listen A ^Fsong I will s^Cing

About my daddy

Who ran a log t^G7rain Way ^Cdown in the southland In ol^Fd Alaba^Cm'

We lived in a place

That they c^G7alled Chapman ^CTown

And late in the evening

When t^Fhe sun was l^Cow Way off in the distance You could hear the train b^G7low

The ^Cfolks would come runnin' And ^Fmama would ^Csing

Get the supper on the table

Here c^G7omes the log ^Ctrain

Every morning

At the ^Fbreak of d^Cay He'd grab his lunch bucket And be on his ^G7way

W^Cinter or summer ^FSunshine or r^Cain

Every morning he'd run

T^G7hat old log ^Ctrain

A sweatin' and swearin'

^FAll day l^Cong Shoutin' get up the oxens Keep movin' ^G7along

^CLoad'er up boys 'cause it l^Fooks like ^Crain

I've got to get rollin'

^G7This old log ^Ctrain

This story happened

A l^Fong time ^Cago The log train is silent God called dad to ^G7go

But whe^Cn I get to heaven To ^Falways r^Cemain

I'll listen for whistle

On^G7 the old log ^Ctrain
