Train Whistle Blues Lyrics
Train Whistle Blues - Jimmie Rodgers
De O de lay ee
Lay ee O
Lay ee
When a woman gets the blues
She hangs her little head and cries
But when a man gets the blues
She hangs her little head and cries
But when a man gets the blues
He grabs a train and rides
Every time I see that
Lonesome railroad train
Every time I see that
Lonesome railroad train
It makes me wish
I was going home again
De O de lay ee
Lay ee
O lay ee
Look a-yonder coming
Coming down that railroad track
Look a-yonder coming
Coming down that railroad track
With the black smoke rolling
Rolling from that old smoke stack
I got the blues so bad till
The whole round world look blue
I got the blues so bad till
The whole round world looks blue
I ain't got a dime
I don't know what to do
De O de lay ee
Lay ee O lay ee
I'm weary now
I want to leave this town
I'm weary now and
I want to leave this town
I can't find a job
I'm tired of hanging around
De O de lay ee
Lay ee O lay ee
