Paroles de Steel rail blues

Well i got my mail late last night a letter from a girl who found the time to write
To her lonesome boy somewher's in the night
She sent me a railroad ticket too to take me to her lovin' arms
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one i love

Well i been up tight most every night walkin' around the streets of this old town
Not a friend around to tell my troubles to
My good old car she done broke down cause i drove it into the ground
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one i love
Well i look over yonder across that plain
The big drive wheels a poundin' along the ground
Gonna get on board and i'll be homeward bound
Now i ain't had a home cooked meal and lord i need one now
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one i love

Well here i am with my hat in my hand
Standin' on the broad highway will you give a ride
To a lonesome boy who missed the train last night
I went in town for one last round i gambled my ticket away
And the big steel rail won't carry me home to the one i love
