Font:      
Align:    
  • Well I come in on a night train
  • With an arm full of box cars
  • On the wings of a magpie
  • Cross a hooligan night
  • And I busted up a chifforobe
  • Way out by the cocomo
  • Cooked up a mess a mulligan
  • And got into a fight
  • Chorus: whistlin past the graveyard
  • Steppin on a crack
  • Im a mean motherhubbard
  • Papa one eyed jack
  • You propably seen me sleepin
  • Out by the railroad tracks
  • Go on and ask the prince of darkness
  • What about all thet smoke
  • Come from the stack
  • Sometimes I kill myself a jacket
  • Suck out all the blood
  • Steal myself a stationwagon
  • Drivin through the mud
  • Chorus
  • I know you seen my headlights
  • And the honkin of my horn
  • Im callin out my bloodhounds
  • Chase the devil through the corn
  • Last night I chugged the mississippi
  • Now that suckers dry as a bone
  • Born in a taxi cab
  • Im never comin home
  • Chorus
  • My eyes have seen the glory
  • Of the draining of the ditch
  • I only come to baton rouge
  • To find myself a witch
  • Im-ona snatch me up a
  • Couple of em every time it rains
  • You see a locomotive
  • Probably thinkin its a train
  • Chorus
  • What you think is the sunshine
  • Is just a twinkle in my eye
  • That ring around my fingers
  • Just the 4th of july
  • When I get a little bit lonesome
  • And a tear falls from my cheek
  • Theres gonna be an ocean in
  • The middle of the week
  • Chorus
  • I rode into town on a night train
  • With an arm full of box cars
  • On the wings of a magpie
  • Cross a hooligan night
  • Im-ona tear me off a rainbow
  • And wear it for a tie
  • I never told the truth
  • So I can never tell a lie
  • Chorus
