Well, my mama told me, my papa told me too
And my mama told me, Papa told me too
Well, I shouldn't be here tryin' to sing these railroad blues
Wish I had a-listened, whoa, what my mama said
Wish I had a-listened, whoa, my mama said
Well, I wouldn't be here tryin' to sleep in this cold iron bed
ย
Well, I went to the depot, I never got there on time
Well, I went to the depot, never got there on time
Train rollin' down, she's a-rollin' down the line
Mister Jailer, go away now, don't tell me no lies
Mister Jailer, go away now, don't tell me no lies
Well, the train's rollin' down, she's a-rollin' down the line

Wish I had a-listened, whoa, what mama said
Wish I had a-listened to all what my mama said
Well, I wouldn't be here tryin' to sleep in this cold iron bed
Well, my mama told me, my papa told me too
Well, my mama told me, Papa told me too
Well, I shouldn't be here trying to sing these railroad blues
