Train to Memphis

There's a train going to Memphis
Please can I go
Train bound for Memphis
Please can I go
I get so lonesome
When I hear that whistle blow

Blows every night
About twelve o'clock, yeah, yeah
Blows every night
About twelve o'clock
I said I'm going to Memphis, honey
Even if I have to walk
Oh, come on now, yeah

I've been stuck down in Texas
With nobody by my side
Oh, stuck down in Texas
With nobody by my side
Every time I hear that whistle
You know I sure wanna ride

I'm gonna go down on Beale Street
I'll drink me some wine
Go down on Beale Street
I'm goin' to drink me some wine
I'll get so loaded, honey
I'm gonna feel real fine
Ah, let's go

There's a train going to Memphis
Please can I go
Train bound for Memphis
Please can I go
I get so lonesome
When I hear that whistle blow
