Well I’m ridin’ on this train

Well I’m ^Dm ridin’ on this train, I’ve got tears in my eyes.
I’m tryin’ to read a ^Am letter from my ^Dm home.
If this train runs me ^Am right, I’ll be home Saturday ^Dm night
’cause I’m ^Am nine hundred miles from my ^Dm home.
And I hate to ^A7 hear that lonesome whistle ^Dm blow,
it’s that ^A7 long lonesome train whistling ^Dm down.

 

1. Well I’m ridin’ on this train, I’ve got tears in my eyes.
I’m tryin’ to read a letter from my home.
If this train runs me right, I’ll be home Saturday night
’cause I’m nine hundred miles from my home.
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow,
it’s that long lonesome train whistling down.

2. Well this train I ride on
is a hundred coaches long
You can hear the whistle blow
a hundred miles
If this train runs me right,
I’ll be home Saturday night
’cause I’m nine hundred
miles from my home.
And I hate to hear
that lonesome whistle blow,
it’s that long lonesome train
whistling down.

3. Now if you say so,
I will railroad no more
Sidetrack my train and go home
If this train runs me right,
I’ll be home Saturday night
’cause I’m nine hundred
miles from my home.
And I hate to hear
that lonesome whistle blow,
it’s that long lonesome train
whistling down.
