Big Railroad Blues lyrics by Grateful Dead
Well my Mama told me, my Papa told me too
Now my Mama told me, Papa told me too
That I shouldn't be here tryin' to sing these railroad blues
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said
And I wouldn't be here tryin' to sleep in this cold iron bed
I went to the depot, Never got there on time
Went down to the depot, never got there on time
My train done left, she's rollin' down the line
Mister Jailer go away now, don't tell me no lies
Mister Jailer go away, don't tell me no lies
When the train run down, she's rollin' down the line
Well my Mama told me, my Papa told me too
Now my Mama told me, Papa told me too
Well I shouldn't be here tryin' to sing these railroad blues
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said
Wish I had listened to what my Mama said
And I wouldn't be here tryin' to sleep in this cold iron bed
