carson j. robison and frank luther - the railroad boomer lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
come and gather all around me
listen to my tale of woe
got some good advice to give you
lot of things you ought to know
take a tip from one who’s traveled
and never stopped a-ramblin’ ’round
you’re liable to get the wandein’ fever
you never want to settle down

[verse 2]
met a little gal in frisco
asked her to be my wife
told her i was tired of roamin’
that i’d settle down for life
then i heard a whistle blowin’
knew it was the red ball train
left her standin’ by the railroad
never see’d the gal again
never see’d the gal again

[verse 3]
wandered all around this country
guess i’ve traveled everywhere
been on every branch line railroad
never paid a nickel fare
i been from maine to california
canada to mexico
never tried to save no money
now i got no place to go

[verse 4]
listen to a boomer’s story
don’t forget the things i say
i hear another train a-comin’
and i’ll be on my way
if you wanna do a favor
when i lay me down and die
dig my grave beside the railroad
so i can hear the trains roll by
so i can hear the trains roll by
