It sounds good.. Two thumbs up... -LastgenRJ \| 8/4/2003
sounds great! -Texas \| 10/7/2003
In the last version of the Chorus, it isn't Newberry's train songs...it's Jerry Jeff's Train song...at least when Willie sings it with him... -criley98 \| 11/26/2003
I think it's " Jerry Jeff's pain songs". Then again, I have been wrong before. -mboozer \| 1/8/2004
It's "Jerry Jeff's train songs.." this it what it sounds like and it makes more sense because of his "Railroad Lady" song and others. -rosbro \| 1/13/2004
It does say Jerry Jeff's train songs but only on that last chorus when Willie is singing at the end every other time when Waylon is singing he says Newberry's train songs. -tfoust06 \| 2/3/2004
great tab just think the A chord over two garage should be changed to a Am. great tab though. -zxxpress \| 5/1/2004
The song book I have has it as Newber's train song. Classic Country Mike -tinagirl \| 7/18/2004
Excellent this is one of the classics good job -tank6603 \| 1/5/2005
Good job! Who did the new remake of this song that I have heard recently? -bigmon1 \| 1/14/2005
Kid Rock and Kenny Chesney -matellmon \| 1/24/2005
But Waylon and Willie sing it better. -7spursxit89 \| 4/13/2005
Kevin Fowler and Matt Martindale(cooder graw) have a version thats pretty good.. -agentorange \| 10/5/2005
Anybody Know the strumming pattern I'm having a hard time getting it down. -Toomey \| 10/9/2005

Just felt like making a comment since no one has commented on this song in 8 Years -bobby smithermn \| 1/28/2017
Yes, I’ll add a recent comment to keep this thing going. I don’t know why I never learned this song when I first started but I’m just now getting around to it now smdh I can dig the effort on the chords for this song. It’s perfect to me and I’m working on addin it to the song list. All time great song that’ll live on forever! Long live Outlaw Country -troylineman21 \| 2/4/2022
