Eilen Jewell - The Poor Girl's Story Şarkı Sözleri

Come and gather all around me Listen to my tale of woe
Got some good advice to give you
Lotta things you oughta know
Take a tip from one who travelled
Never start to ramble around
You're likely get wandering fever
Never want to settle down
I met a little boy in Frisco
I asked him if he had a wife
Told I was tired of rambling
I wanna settle down for life
Then I heard the whistle blowin'
I knew it was the Georgia train
I left him standin' by the railroad
I'll never see that man again
Wandered all around this country
Had to travel everywhere
Been on that old brick line railroad
Never paid a nickel fare
Been from Maine to California
Ended up in Mexico
I wouldn't try to save no money
No I got nowhere to go
Listen to a poor girl's story
Listen to the things I say
I hear another train a-coming
And I'll soon be on my way
If you wanna do me a favor
Come and lay me down to die
But dig my grave beside the railroad
So I can hear the trains go by
