I got on that freight train;    tried to beat    my         way.      
I asked the conductor,          let me   ride    it         blind.
Got a letter from Hot Spring. I tell you how     it         read.
Last time I saw here, she was   standing at back door       cryin'.

Lord them rocks and gravel, Lord, flew all in    my         face.
 He said, "No boy, that         train ain't none of         mine."  
Come home at once boy, your     sure-'nough gal  is         dead.
  I never felt so sorry, Lord, as when she said          goodbye.
