Golden Rocket

From ol' Montana down to Alabama I've been before and I'll travel again You triflin' women can't keep a good man down You dealt the cards but you missed the play So hit the road and be on your way Gonna board the Golden Rocket and leave this town I was a good engine a runnin' on time But baby I'm switchin' to another line So honey never hang your signal out for me I'm tired of runnin' on the same ol' track Bought a one way ticket and I won't be back This Golden Rocket's gonna blow my blues away Hear that lonesome whistle blow Well, that's your cue and by now you know That I got another true love waitin' in Tennessee That midnight special is burnin' the rail So woman don't try to follow my trail This Golden Rocket's gonna roll my blues away Hear her thunder on through the night That Golden Rocket is doin' me right And that sunny ol' southland sure is a part of me Now from your call board erase my name Your fire went out, you done lost your flames And this Golden Rocket is rollin' my blues away That old conductor he seemed to know You done me wrong, I was feelin' low For he yelled aloud, "We're over that Dixon Line" The brakeman started singin' a song Said, "You're worried now but it won't be long This Golden Rocket is leavin' your blues behind" Then the porter yelled with his southern drawl "Let's rise and shine, good mornin' y'all" And I sprang to my feet to greed the new born day When I kissed my baby at the station door That whistle blew like it never before Of the Golden Rocket that rolled my blues away
