From Stanton Station - Looking Glass

Written by：E. Lurie

I used to work for the New Jersey railroad

I got laid off 'cause the times weren't good

My unemployment sixty five dollars

Sixty five dollars don't buy what it should

I have got a weakness for 80 proof whiskey

Lately I'm drinkin' a bottle every day

Messin' my mind up Lord it's wreckin' my body

But it helps make those long lonely hours slip away

I used to be a railroad man and I'm d**n

Proud of it too

I did more work in a workin' day than any

Two men could do

Foreman said I drink too much and I guess it's

Half way true

I drink half as much as my daddy did and

Twice as much as you

I used to have me a good lookin' woman

Loved her and kept her

And called her my own

She started packin' when I started drinkin'

Now I'm drunk

And I'm busty and I'm angry all

Alone

I used to be a railroad man and I'm d**n

Proud of it too

I did more work in a workin' day than any

Two men could do

Foreman said I drink too much and at last I

Know it's true

But I'm too far gone to change now ain't nothin'

I can do
