The Brakeman´s Blues

Portland Maine is just the same as sunny Tennessee
Portland Maine is just the same as sunny Tennessee
Any old place I hang my hat is home sweet home to me
Hey, hey, hey
I went to the depot and looked up on the board
Went to the depot and looked up on the board, hello Memphis
It says, «It's good times here but it’s better on down the road»
I’ll eat my breakfast here, get my dinner in New Orleans, right on down to
Birmingham
Get my breakfast here, get my dinner in New Orleans
I’m gonna get me a mama, Lord I ain’t never seen
Where was you mama when the train left the shed?
Hey buddy
Where was you mama when the train left the shed?
Standing in my front door wishing to God I was dead
If your house catch a fire, there ain’t no water around, sing them blues boy
If your house catch a fire, there ain’t no water 'round
Just put my trunk out the window, let the house burn on down
If that’s your mama, you better tie her to your side
If that’s your mama, you better tie her to your side, your noise
'Cause if she flag my train, I’m sure gonna let her ride
