philip lewin – back home, to you lyrics

Loading...

train is coming
’bout half past ten
i’m going to be here
and i’m going to be there
i’ve got my ticket
and i’ve packed my bag
i’m going to leave here
don’t look so sad

i won’t stop crying
cause it’ll be alone
yes, just count the hours on my own
when the roaring engine fades
you’ll know i’ve gone
but one of these days
one of these days
i’ll be coming home

took my seat
and i don’t know why
didn’t even [?]
as the train pulled by
pulled down my hat
turned out the lights
goin’ to new orleans
try the city life

now the engine
she began to wail
and the countryside
looked dark and pale
i saw you walking
through the hills
and i heard you cryin’
i heard you cryin’
it gave me chills

i woke up
and i looked around
bright lights, pretty woman
in fancy gowns
the conductor said
“won’t you please step down?
we’ve just arrived
in new orleans town”

i took my bag
from under my seat
walked from the platform
down into the street
i asked a lady
where i could find something to eat
and she took me home
she took me home
made love to me

left her sleeping on her bed
i hear the [?] draped all around my head
went to the hotel
and the night clerk said
“do you want some company tonight?”
“no,” i said

well, my head is spinning
all around the room
and when i lay down
i can smell her perfume
feel her warm body
rubbing against me too
but i got sick that night
sick through and through

one evening
in a smoke-filled hall
good friends [?]
didn’t gamble
how they drank it all
didn’t want to be there
not at all

well, the train is coming
about half past eight
i’m gonna be there
and i won’t be late
hold you in my arms
and i could nearly cry
you know i couldn’t leave you
i couldn’t leave you if i tried
couldn’t leave you if i tried
couldn’t leave you if i tried
