watching the trains go by
Down at the railroad station my suitcase settin' by my side Got no high hopes of leaving I'm just watching the trains go by Watching the trains go by  Lawyer Jabob's wife she is expecting and he wonders why in blazes How his wife could come to blame now they tried so many times before Walking back down this dusty farmroad my thirsty mind is high and dry One more day down at the station watching the trains go by Down at the railroad station  Papa's working at the coal mines mama's lying sick in bed They'd be better off without me one less mouth to be fed Younger brother John is in the jailhouse down on the woodfarm chopping wood I stayed around and tried to change him don't look like I done no good Down at the railroad station Down at the railroad station
