“Train Forty-Five leaving Terminal Station, Atlanta, Georgia, All aboard!”

Verse

        G
Oh, you ought to be in town to see that train come down
                     D              G
And hear the whistle blow a hundred times.

Verse

I'm going up the track bring my little woman back
I'm tired of living this away.

Verse

If this train runs right, see my woman Saturday night
Lord, I’m nine hundred miles away from home.

Verse

If my woman says so, I’ll railroad no more
I’ll sidetrack this train and go home.

Verse

You can count the days I’m gone and the trains that I am on
You can hear the whistle blow nine hundred miles.

Verse

I’m going down the ties with tears in my eyes
Tryin’ to read a letter from my home.

Verse

If I die a railroad man, you can bury me in the sand
So I can hear that whistle blow nine hundred miles.

Verse

If this train runs right, see my woman Saturday night
Lord, I’m nine hundred miles away from home.
