Frank Fairfield - The Train That Took My Girl From Town Lyrics
Tennessee raised Alabama bound
If the girl leave me gonna move from town
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train carried my girl from town
Where were you when the train left town
I was standing on the corner with head hung down
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train carried my girl from town
Rations on the table and the coffee's gettin' cold
Some old rambler stole my jelly roll
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train carried my girl from town
I was going to the depot
See that girl, won't you bring her back
She got her fingers in my money sack
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train carried my girl from town
Ain't that the train that carried my girl from town
If I had her number Lord I'd sure flag it down
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train, hey, hey, hey, hey
Won't you here that whistle blowin'
I wish to the Lord that train would wreck
Kill the engineer, break the fireman's neck
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train carried my girl from town
See that train Lord I'd run down the track
Call? with my girl? back
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train carried my girl from town
Oh it gone with her now
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Show me a woman that a boy can trust
Hey, Lord ain't that passing train that carried my girl from town
