Commencing in chattanooga
Where did haywood go? Anyone see him escape?
Commencing in chattanooga
Where do you think he went?
On the southern railroad line
On the southern railroad line
Haywood slipped past the devil
As he looked the other way
On the southern railroad line
The devil's burning mad
'cause he's got hell to pay
On the southern railroad line
Haywood's headin' out for freedom
And he's racin' down the track
On the southern railroad line
He's flyin' like a black bird
Lookin' forward, never back
On the southern railroad line
Haywood hears the dogs a'barkin'
As he crosses tennessee
On the southern railroad line
He's lookin' up and prayin'
Singin' "lord, remember me."
On the southern railroad line
Haywood's livin' like a sultan
And smokes a fine cigar
On the southern railroad line
Haywood's got his fingers
In sylvia's cookie jar
On the southern railroad line
On the southern railroad line
On the southern railroad line
On the southern railroad line
