Well, I'm walkin' railroad track, I got tears in my eyes Tryin' to read a letter from my home
If that train runs me right, I'll be home tomorrow night 'Cause it's nine hundred miles from my home. And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
Well, the train I ride on is a hundred coaches long You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
If that train runs me right, I'll be home tomorrow night 'Cause it's nine hundred miles from my home. And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
I will pawn you my watch, I will pawn you my chain Pawn you my gold diamond ring.
If that train runs me right, I'll be home tomorrow night 'Cause it's nine hundred miles from my home. And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
