LONG BLACK TRAIN (Harold Jenkins) CONWAY TWITTY (M-G-M 14274, 1960)
Look a-yonder coming, coming down that railroad track I said, Look a-yonder coming Coming down that long railroad track Well, it's that long black train Gonna bring my baby back Well, she loved me in the winter Lord, I almost froze to death She didn't even warm me She's a fact of frozen lips My baby hit the road a-running Looking for that long black train (That long black train) Lord, and I began to wonder Will I see that girl again (If I see my girl again) Well, I don't know why she left me But I do know that she's gone But look a-yonder coming Lord My baby's coming home I said, now look a-yonder coming Coming down that long railroad track (That long railroad track) Well, it's that long black train Gonna bring my baby back (Gonna bring my baby back)
Well, ain't asking her no questions 'Cause I don't care where she's been And when I get that woman back She'll never leave again I said, now look a-yonder coming Coming down that long railroad track (That long railroad track) Well, it's that long black train Gonna bring my baby back (Gonna bring my baby back) Well, I can see her black smoke rollin' I can hear her whistle whine She's just around the curve She's moving fast and right on time I said, now look a-yonder coming Coming down that long railroad track (That long railroad track) Yes, it's that long black train Gonna bring my baby back (Gonna bring my baby back) (Gonna bring my baby back) (That long black train, Lord)
