jody miller - railroad boy lyrics

Loading...

she went upstairs to make her bed
and not a word to her mother said
her mother, she went upstairs too
saying, “daughter, oh daughter, what’s troublin’ you?”

“oh mother dear, i cannot tell
that railroad boy that i love so well
he courted me my life away
and now at home, he will not stay.”

“there is a place in london town
where railroad boy goes and sits down
and he takes a stranger on his knee
and he tells to her what he won’t tell me.”
her father he came home from work
sayin’, “where is my daughter, she seems so hurt”
he went upstairs to give her hope
an’ he found her hangin’ from a rope

he took his knife and he cut her down
and on her bosom these words he found:
“go dig my grave both wide and deep
put a marble stone at my head and feet
and over my coffin put a snow+white dove
to show the world that i died of love
