C D
Well that downtown train is rollin on

It's rollin on
Verse 2
I ain't gonna work on the railroad
Ain't gonna work on the farm no
I'm gonna lay around this shack
Til the mail train come back
And I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Sometimes it seems like tomorrow
Turned its back on yesterday
And all of my pain and all of my heartache and sorrow
Ain't gonna be enough to make her stay
Chorus
