Well the woman I love, great long curly hair
Now don't you hear me talking baby
Well the woman I love, great long curly hair
Well she's a married woman
Her man don't want me there

Well the train I ride, 16 coaches long
Now don't you hear me talking baby
Train I ride, 16 coaches long
Well I'm sittin here wonderin
When I bring my baby home

Well smokestack lightning, the bells all shine like gold
Now don't you hear me talking baby
Smokestack lightning, bells all shine like gold
How much I love her,
Dooooon't know body know

Well the meanest people that I ever seen
Now don't you hear me talking baby
You the meanest people that I ever seen
Well I search for water,
She brought me gasoline
