This train that I ride I am walkin down this track With tears in my eyes Tryin to read a letter from my home If this train run me right I'll be home tonight 500 miles from my home I hate that lonesome whistle song That long train whistlin down I am walkin down this track With tears in my eyes Tryin to read a letter from my home This train that I ride A hundred coaches long Hear the whistle blow a hundred miles I'm one, Lord I'm two I hate that lonesome whistle song That long train whistlin down This train that I ride A hundred coaches long Hear the wistle blow This train that I ride If I pawn you my wagon Pawn you my teeth If I pawn you my watch and chain If this train run me right I'll be home tonight Five hundred miles This train that I ride If you miss the train I'm on You will know that I am gone 500 miles I'm one, lord I'm two, three lord I'm four I hate that lonesome whistle song That long train whistlin down If you miss the train I'm on You will know that I am gone Five hundred miles This train that I ride If you miss the train I'm on
