Lyrics of First train headin' south

I didn't know my baby love me so until that letter come to let me know
Now i pack my bags and then i'll go and catch a first train i see headin' south

If i got this letter in idaho where snow's so deep it wouldn't let me go
I'd went hog wild and melted all that snow
And cought a first train i saw headin' south
If i got this letter in iowa nothing in this world could make me stay
I'd grab my hat and then been on my way and cought a first train i see headin' south
I didn't know my baby love me so...
( guitar )
I didn't know my baby love me so...

If i got this letter in ohio with a busted back and arms and broken toe
There'd be no hesitation i would go and catch a first train i saw headin' south
But i got this letter up in maine you can bet your bottom dollar i feel the same
Every clickety clack of drivers call her name
As i ride this freight train i caught headin' south
I didn't know my baby love me so...
