Piano In Bb
Lord I woke up this morning my man was gone
Sit on my bedside hung my head and moan
Walk down the street Lord I couldn’t be satisfied
Well I got those railroad blues I’m just too mean to cry
Some said he left on a Seaboard some say the W & A
I don’t what train it was that carried my man away
Fetch up my jumper iron up my overall
Well I’m gonna ride that train I mean that cannonball
It blowed for Birmingham just about half past four
At five o’clock I was knockin’ on my good gal’s door
She said come in here papa where have you been gone
Said I’ve been in Cincinnati tryin’ to get your Sally Long
Sally Long me daddy Eagle Rock me too
Nobody can rock me like my sweet papa Cow Cow do
Mama’s says I’m crazy my papa knows I’m wild
Now everybody in town calls me mama’s angel child
