Good Morning Mr Railroad Man Lyrics

Official lyrics for Good Morning Mr Railroad Man, performed by Ry Cooder.

(traditional) Good morning, mr. railroad man What time do your trains roll by ? "at 9:16 and 2:44 and 25 minutes 'till 5" "at 9:16 and 2:44 and 25 minutes 'till 5" Thank you, mr. railroad man I want to watch your trains go by Standing on a platform, smoking a cheap cigar And waiting for an old freight train that carries an empty car Well, i pulled my hat down over my eyes And i walked across the tracks And i caught me the end of an old freight train And i never did come back Well, i sat down in a gamblin' game But i could not play my hand I was thinkin' about the woman i loved Run away with another man, poor boy Run away with another man I was thinking about the woman that i loved Run away with another man
