Bobby Bare - Watching The Trains Go By lyrics

Down at the railroad station my suitcase settin' by my side

Got no high hopes of leaving I'm just watching the trains go by

Watching the trains go by

Lawyer Jabob's wife she is expecting and he wonders why in blazes

How his wife could come to blame now they tried so many times before

Walking back down this dusty farmroad my thirsty mind is high and dry

One more day down at the station watching the trains go by

Down at the railroad station...

Papa's working at the coal mines mama's lying sick in bed

They'd be better off without me one less mouth to be fed

Younger brother John is in the jailhouse down on the woodfarm chopping wood

I stayed around and tried to change him don't look like I done no good

Down at the railroad station...

Down at the railroad station...
