Description?
Lyrics[Verse 1]
Early in the morning, just at the break of day
Early in the morning, just at the break of day
[The/that] [railman/trainman/train had?] came and he wooed my man away

[Verse 2]
I raised my window, looked at the rising sun
I raised my window, looked at the rising sun
Nobody can love me just like my sweet man done

[Verse 3]
Standing on the railroad, looking north and south
Standing on the railroad, looking north and south
Lord, I've been mistreated, my man has turned me out
[Verse 4]
Far down the railroad, far as I could see
Far down the railroad, far as I could see
Looked like I could see my good man crawling back to meYou might also like
