Rollin’ Down the Track

Well times are getting hard and times are getting slack
I told my baby I could ride track
Now I'm riding them rails, cross the country I roam,
While my baby sits at home alone

Now I'm pulling a heavy load, it's a mighty hard burden,
But it's all for my baby that I'm working
Yeah it's all for that girl that I left at my home,
Now forever I will roam

There goes that train rolling down the track

When later I got home my baby had gone,
And her note said, "I can't stand to be alone
I'm going to catch the midnight train and I'm rolling down the track,
And I know that I won't never come back."

There goes that train rolling down the track
There goes that train rolling down the track
