Lyrics:
of gravels
And throw 'em down on the ground for ties
Yeah, and I'd make up songs, I'd sing
He was a railroad man
Was a railroad man
He was a railroad
smoky hills
Where the stories and the lives sound all the same
With a shiner and a runner and a farmer and his wife
And a railroad man and a miner in
Feel like an old railroad man
Ridin' out on the Bluemont line
Hummin' along old dominion blues
Not much to see and not much left to lose
And I
Feel like an old railroad man
Ridin' out on the Bluemont line
Hummin' along old dominion blues
Not much to see and not much left to lose
And I
marry a railroad man
Don't marry a railroad man
A railroad man gonna kill you if he can
And drink up your blood like wine
Baby wants a nine dollar shawl
Feel like an old railroad man
Ridin' out on the bluemont line
Hummin' along old dominion blues
Not much to see and not much left to lose
And I
and the women too
Goin’ down to the holler with you
Railroad man quit workin’ the track workin’ on the track runnin’ through my yard
Railroad man quit workin’
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
marry a gamblin' man
With a gold watch and chain
He's a gamblin' man

And I would not marry a railroad man

Knew the train would roll that day but I did not know what time.
Good morning Mister Railroad Man, what time does
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
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
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
run that six-line train
I run a six-line train
I run a six-line train clear from Brooklyn Bridge to Pelham Bay
I'm the son of a railroad man
I'm
gambling man, love that gambling man
I love that gambling man.'
'I wouldn't marry a railroad man
This is the reason why.
I've never seen a railroad man
what time, boys, did not know what time.
Knew the train would roll that day but I did not know what time.

As the train rolled by
I'm a railroad man
I've got steel rails on my mind
Got this engine in my blood
Got to get on down the line
"Bend over ladies, I'm a railroad man."
It happened one morning about a quarter to four,
Pulled up in front of a whorehouse door,
Climbed through
a railroad man
Never trust a railroad man
Railroad man, he'll kill you if he can
Drink up your blood like wine
Kimpy wants a nine dollar shawl
Kimpy wants
Baby, where you been so long
Oh, I don't like no railroad man
Oh, I don't like no railroad man
Cause a railroad man will kill you if he can
And drink

For a railroad man, he’ll
