Merle Haggard - Train Whistle Blues lyrics

[Merle Haggard - Train Whistle Blues lyrics]

When a woman gets the blues
She hangs her little head and cries
When a woman gets blue
She hangs her little head and cries
But when a man gets blue
He grabs him a train and rides

I can't understand how come you
Do me like you do
I can't understand how come you do me
Like you do do do do
Well, if you don't want me, woman
Since I don't want you

Looky yonder coming
Coming down the railroad track
Looky yonder coming
Coming down the railroad track
And see the black smoke rolling
Rolling from that old smokestack

De yodel le-ee ai yodel e-ee hey, hey hey

I feel so bad
The whole round world looks blue
I feel so bad that the
Whole round world looks blue
I ain't got no money, I don't know what to do

Looky yonder coming
Coming down the railroad track
Looky yonder coming
Coming down the railroad track
And see the black smoke rolling
Rolling from that old smokestack

De yodel le-ee ai-de yodel e-ee
