The Train That Carried My Girl from Town Songtext

von Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs

Now where was you when the train left town
Standin' on the corner with my head bowed down
Hey the train that carried her from town hey hey hey
I wish to the Lord that train would wreck
Kill the engineer break the fireman's head
Hey the train that carried her from town hey hey hey

[ fiddle ]
Her rasher's on the table coffee's gettin' cold
Some dirty rounder's done stole my Jelly Roll
Hey the train that carried her from town hey hey hey
I call my girl somebody bring her back
She's got her hand in my money sack
Hey the train that carried her from town hey hey hey

[ dobro ]
Ashes to ashes and this dust to dust
Show me the woman that a man can trust
Hey the train that carried her from town hey hey hey
