Baby here I am
By the railroad track
Waiting for my baby
Oh, he's coming back
Coming back to me
On the five or three
No, no, it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long
I've had no lovin'
Since you were away
Been a long time to lose baby
Come on along to me
And that's why I'm sure
When the whistle blow
No, no, it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long
My daddy told me
When he said goodbye, yes he did
"I'll be back my baby
Baby, by and by"
That's why I'm waiting
Somewhere down the road, yeah
Can't you see how happy I am?
Because my man is coming home
Now here I'd be
By the railroad track
Oh! Waiting for my baby
Oh, he's coming back
Coming back to me
On a five or three
No, no, it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long
I'm so excited
My knees are shaking, yeah
Listen here if you're nearer
Don't you keep me waiting
You hear me, tell him to hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry
Hurry! Baby!
Hurry! Baby! Oh yeah!
Baby here I am
By the railroad track
Oh, waiting for my baby
Oh, he's coming back
Coming back to me
On the five or three
No, no, it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long
My daddy told me
When he said goodbye, yes he did
"I'll be back my baby
Baby, by and by"
That's why I'm waiting
Somewhere down the road, yeah
Can't you see how happy I am
Because my man is coming home
Now here I'll be
By the railroad track
Oh, waiting for my baby
Oh, he's coming back
Coming back to me
On the five or three
No, no, it won't be long
No, it won't be long
I'm so excited
My body's shaking yeah
Listen here if you're nearer
Don't you keep me waiting
You hear me, tell him to hurry, hurry
