INTRO

Looking at that train, as it passes by
Looking at that train, as it passes by
It gives me the blues, and makes me want to cry

Thinking 'bout my baby, that went away last Fall
Thinking 'bout my baby, that went away last Fall
Sometime I think, she ain't never comin' back at all

She went to see her folks, live down in Alabam'
She went to see her folks, live down in Alabam'
I know she'd come home if she knows how blue I am

SOLO

I flirt with other women, just like all men do
I flirts with other women, just like all men do
But they ain't nobody, can take the place of my Baby Lou

Every time I hear that, old train whistle blow
Every time I hear that, old train whistle blow
Makes me want to follow my baby, everywhere she go
