The Brakeman's Blues (Yodelling The Blues Away) |
Portland, Maine |
Is just the same |
As sunny Tennessee-ee |
Portland, Maine |
Is just the same |
As sunny Tennessee-ee-hee |
Any old place |
I hang my hat |
Is home sweet home to me-ee |
Odel-ay-he |
Lay-he O-lee-o-lay-ee |
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 said there’s good times here |
But it’s better down the road |
Odel-ay-he |
Lay-he-ay-lee-o-lay-ee |
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 he-heens |
I’m gonna get me a mama |
Lawd, I ain’t never see-een |
Odel-ay-he |
Where was you mama |
When the train left the shed? |
Yeah, buddy |
Where was you mama |
When the train left the shed? |
Standin' in my front door |
Wishin' to God I was dead |
Odel-ay-he |
Lay-he-ay-lee-o-lay-ee |
If your house catch-a fire |
There ain’t no water 'round |
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 |
Odel-ay-he |
If that’s your mama |
You better tie her to your side |
If that’s your mama |
You better tie her to your side |
Hush yo' noise! |
'Cause if she flags my train |
I’m sure gonna let her ride |
Odel-ay-he |
