Long ol' train cruel engineer
They took my baby and left me here
And how long will I keep these lonesome blues?
How long, how long
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how long baby how long?
Mean ol' blues come down on me
They're all around me, they're all I see
And how long will I keep these lonesome blues?
How long, how long
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how long baby how long?
Cruel engineer can't you see
I need my baby back with me?
Then I'd be rid of these mean ol' lonesome blues
How long, how long
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how long baby how long?
