Big Bill Broonzy - Southbound Train (Version 3) Lyrics

(Big Bill Broonzy)

I wonder why that southbound train don't run
I wonder why that southbound train don't run
Little woman, you don't need no tellin',
I declare, you know just what you've done

I've got my ticket, I'm holdin' right here in my hand
I've got my ticket, I'm holdin' right here in my hand
Lord, I've got a real good woman, but the poor gal just don't understand

I'm a hard workin' man, catch the devil everywhere I go
I'm a hard workin' man, I catch the devil everywhere I go
Lord, when I get out in the lowland, baby, I won't be worried no more

I'm on my way to the lowland, Mr. conductor man, can I ride?
I'm on my way to the lowland, Mr. conductor man, can I ride?
Lord, I just want to keep on riding, until I get satisfied
