BLUE RAILROAD TRAIN
A. Delmore & R. Delmore

Blue railroad train, going down the rairoad tracks
It makes me feel, so doggone blue
To listen to that old smokestack

Come back again, let me hear the whistle blow
Your taking the sun, and leaving the rain
And I hate to see you go

Blue railroad train, leaving me far behind
Give me back, the good old days
And let me ramble down the line
Blue railroad train, leaving me here alone
You treat me good, you treat me bad
You're making me think of home

I've got the blues, I'm lonely for company
It's many miles, from where I am
To the only one for me
It's lonely here, waiting for the men up here
I hope that engineer is kind
Enough to let me be a guest

I'm not as bad, as you might think I am
I've hoboed here, I've hoboed there
I've traveled these states around
Blue railroad train, a good old pal to me
You take me where, I want to go
And the transportation's free
