Workin' on the railroad, boys, sure will give you the blues
I'm talkin' 'bout workin' on that railroad bend, it sure will give you the blues

My black woman, she needs the money, that's why I work so hard
Boys, my black woman, she needs the money, that's why I work so hard
And if I don't keep on rollin', she'll have another black man in my yard
When your black woman starts playin' home, partner, railroad is all you know

Just get out on the hot track, and work your hands to the crow
