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 |
