Amtrak Blues - Alberta Hunter

Written by：Alberta Hunter

Somebody come here and help me

Help me 'cause the man I love is gone

Oh help me yes come here and help me

Help me 'cause the man I love is gone

Oh Lord have mercy I'm so confused and worried

I can hardly carry on oh oh

Oh trouble dark days just can't last always

Lord I know oh I said trouble and dark days

Just can't last always Lord help me help me

So I'm going to keep on struggling

I know I'll to see brighter days

Ah please help me somebody help me

My two sisters told me

Other people tried to tell me too oh Lord

Yes I said my two sisters told me

Other people tried to tell me too ah yeah

Oh they said you don't change your way of living

That very man is going to be the death of you

Oh Lord yes

Oh I know he's onery he's trifling

He's the type of man that just don't care

Ooh Lord he's onery he's selfish

He's the type of man who just don't care

Oh help me help me somebody

Oh he'd pawn the holy bible just to get his Amtrak railroad fare

Oh he's lousy he's a dirty dog

Oh I love him yes I love him

Oh I love him oh and I don't mind dyin'

You hear me talking to you help me somebody

I say I love him yes I love him

Love him and I don't mind dyin'

Oh help me yes help me

I ever run across him I'm going to crack his head

Drink his blood like wine
