Train Whistle Blues
Merle Haggard
Train Whistle Blues Written by Jimmie Rodgers [Intro] [Verse] When a woman gets the blues she hangs her little head and cries When a woman gets the blues she hangs her little head and cries But when a man gets blues he grabs him a train and rides [Verse] 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 do Well if you don’t want me woman it’s a cinch I don’t want you [Chorus] 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 smoke stack [Solo] [Verse] 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 [Chorus] 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 smoke stack
