I was born by the railroad tracks
                                                 C D G 
G
The train whistle wailed, and I wailed right back
G                                         C  D  G
Well papa left mama when I was quite young
G                                               C  D  G
He said now one of these days you're gonna follow me son

               Em         C      
CHORUS X2:     whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
               Em      C    D    G
               I ain’t ever satisfied

VERSE 2
Now I had me a woman she was my world
Yeah well I ran off with my back-street girl
Now my back-street woman could not be true
Left me standin’ on the boulevard thinkin' of you

CHORUS X2

            D                   C    Em  D
BRIDGE:     I got empty feelin' deep inside
            D                     C Em  D
            I'm goin' over to the other side

VERSE 3
Last night I dreamed I made it to the promised land
I was standin’ at the gate and I had the key in my hand
St. Peter said come in boy, you're finally home
I said, no thanks Pete, I’ll just be movin’ along
