It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry |
| Well, I ride on a mail train, baby |
| Can’t buy a thrill |
| I’ve been up all night, baby |
| Leanin' on the window sill |
| If I die |
| On top of the hill |
| And if I don’t make it You know my baby will |
| Don’t the moon look good, mama |
| Shinin' down through the trees? |
| Don’t the brakeman look good, mama |
| Flagging down the double E? |
| Don’t the sun look good |
| Goin' down over the sea? |
| Don’t my gal look fine |
| When she’s comin' after me? |
| Wintertime is coming |
| The windows are filled with frost |
| I went to tell everybody |
| But I could not get across |
| Well, I wanna be your lover, baby |
| I don’t wanna be your boss |
| Don’t say I never warned you |
| If your train gets lost |
