Lyrics
The very next train come down that track, mister railroad man, knew the train would roll that day but i did not know what time
got stuck on a danville girl
watch the train come by knew that train would roll that day but i did not know what time
Smoking a big cigar, what time does your train roll by, i went down to the railroad yard
the very next train come down that track
Watch the train come by knew that train would roll that day but i did not know what time, smoking a big cigar
at nine sixteen
Bet your life she was a pearl, waitin for some old freight train that carries an empty car
Nine sixteen and two forty four, i bid that gal adieu
Did not know what time, she wore that danville curl
Two forty four, i bid that gal adieu Seeger, knew the train would roll that day but i did not know what time
What time does your train roll by, i wanna watch your train roll by standing on the platform
i went down to the railroad yard
Got stuck on a danville girl, i rode her down to danville town
I bid that gal adieu, twenty five minutes Danville, bet your life she was a pearl
She wore that danville curl, at nine sixteen, i bid that gal adieu
She wore that danville curl, i went down to the railroad yard, knew the train would roll that day but i did not know what time
Got stuck on a danville girl, knew the train would roll that day but i did not know what time, i bid that gal adieu
what time does your train roll by
Twenty five minutes, knew the train would roll that day but i did not know what time
Twenty five minutes, i did not know what time Girl, i bid that gal adieu
Did not know what time, i bid that gal adieu
Twenty five minutes, knew the train would roll that day but i did not know what time
mister railroad man
Waitin for some old freight train that carries an empty car, bet your life she was a pearl
Got stuck on a danville girl, i wanna watch your train roll by standing on the platform, twenty five minutes
i wanna watch your train roll by standing on the platform
Good morning, nine sixteen and two forty four
smoking a big cigar
Knew the train would roll that day but i did not know what time, i did not know what time
Got stuck on a danville girl, she wore her hat on the back of her head like high tone people all do very next train come down that track, i bid that gal adieu
I wanna watch your train roll by standing on the platform, bet your life she was a pearl, at nine sixteen
I bid that gal adieu, i bid that gal adieu, at nine sixteen
I went down to the railroad yard, twenty five minutes, two forty four
What time does your train roll by, bet your life she was a pearl
got stuck on a danville girl
i bid that gal adieu
Twenty five minutes, two forty four
Smoking a big cigar, i went down to the railroad yard, nine sixteen and two forty four
i wanna watch your train roll by standing on the platform
