[Verse 1]
My mama told me, my papa told me, too
Well, my mama told me, papa told me, too
Well, I shouldn't be here trying to sing these railroad blues
Wish I had a-listened to what my mama said
Wish I had a-listened, oh, to what my mama said
And I wouldn't be here trying to sleep in this cold iron bed, no
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
I went to the depot, never got there on time
Went down to the depot, never got there on time
Well, that train's going down, she's rolling down the line
Mister jailer, go away now, don't tell me no lies
Mister jailer, go away now, don't tell me no lies
Well, my train's going down, she's rolling down the line
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
My mama told me, my papa told me, too
Well, my mama told me, papa told me, too
Well, I shouldn't be here trying to sing these railroad blues
Wish I had a-listened, oh, to what my mama said
Wish I had a-listened, oh, to what my mama said
Well, I wouldn't be here trying to sleep in this cold iron bed
