Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

  I heard the laughter at the depot

 But my tears, fell like the rain

 When I saw them place that long white casket

 In the baggage coach, of the evening train

 The babies eyes are red from weepin’

 Its little heart is full of pain

 Oh daddy it cried their takin’ momma

 Away from us, on the evening train

Bridge

similar to intro)

 As I turned to walk, away from the depot

 It seemed I heard her call my name

 Take care of my baby, and tell him darling

 That I’m going home, on the evening train

 I pray that god will give me courage

 To carry on till we meet again

 Its hard to know, she’s gone forever

 Their carrying her home, on the evening train

 2nd Bridge(,,,)

 I pray that god will give me courage

 To carry on till we meet again

 It’s hard to know, she’s gone forever

 Their carrying her home, on the evening train

 Their carrying her home, on the evening train
