Train I ride sixteen coaches long

Train I ride sixteen coaches long

 Well that long black train got my baby and gone

Chorus

Train train rollin' around the bend

Train train, rollin' around the bend

 Well it took my baby away from me again

Verse 2

I come down to the station meet my baby at the gate

Asked the station master if the train's runnin' late

He said it's still a-waitin' on the four forty four

I hate to tell you son that train don't stop here anymore

Train train rollin' down the line

Well it took my baby and left poor me behind

Heard that whistle blowin' was the middle of the night

When I got down to the station the train was pullin' out of sight
