I went down to the railroad yard, watch that train
come by, Knew the train would roll that day, but I
did not know what time.

I did not know what time, boys, did not know what
time. Knew the train would roll that day but I did
not know what time.

Good morning Mister Railroad Man, what time does
your train roll by? Nine-sixteen and
two-forty-four, twenty-five minutes 'til five.

At nine-sixteen, two-forty-four, twenty-five

minutes 'til five. Thank you Mister Railroad Man,
I wanna watch your train roll by.

Standing on the platform, smoking a big cigar,
Waitin' for some old freight train that carries an
empty car.

I rode her down to Danville Town, got stuck on a
Danville girl, Bet your life she was a pearl, she
wore that Danville curl.

She wore her hat on the back of her head like
high-tone people all do, Very next train come down
taht track, I bid that girl adieu.

I bid that girl adieu, poor boys, I bid that girl
adieu, The very next train come down that track, I
bid that girl adieu.
