Railroad Blues (Live)

歌詞

Spoken: Well Lloyd, here we are, we're at the end of another record, and it sounds like we've got a, a real good one here this time. But folks, you know a, we're supposed to have roughly, I guess, 40 minutes of music for ya here, and Lloyd says we've only got like 39 and 50 seconds worth, so, just for the hell of it, here's one from us to you, here's a song I wrote when I was 23 years old it's called the Railroad Blues. Here we go . . . 1,2, , 1,2,3 Livin' and lovin' That's how most folks make their way I always look forward to goin' home everyday Well I'd give a hundred dollars if I could be in their shoes Lord I'm so damn lonesome, I got them low down blues Everybody's got someone, yet I'm all alone I got no phone number, no one to call my own And every night that lonesome whistle lets me know when a train goin' by Some times when I hear it I wanna lay down and die Yodal lay ee, yodal oh, yodal eh. (Ah, here's the professor) A whole lotta memories, and I bottle of beer Along with a lost love, and a jug fulla tears Oh I can hear that whistle whinin' when the hour is Lord the Union Pacific makin' it's way across the Lone Star state Well this is my story, I ain't a playin' around (nah, I sure ain't) I got an old trailer, on the outskirts of town It's just me and this here guitar and a bottle of booze Slappin' out a rhythm and singin' the blues Yodal lay ee, oh Railroad Blues
