Cannon Ball Blues Lyrics

Oh, listen to the train coming down the line Trying to make up all their lost time From Buffalo to Washington
You can wash my jumper starch my overalls Catch a train they call the Cannonball From Buffalo to Washington
My baby's left me, she even took my shoes Enough to give a man these doggone worried blues She's gone, she's solid gone
Yonder comes the train, coming down the track Carry me away but it ain't gonna carry me back My honey babe, my blue eyed babe
I'm going up north, I'm going up north this fall If luck don't change, I won't be back at all My honey babe, I'm leaving you
