Pat Travers - Blues On Fire

Rock Island Blues

All aboard, son
We gotta be on time
I'm booked and I got to go

I got my Rock Island blues, waitin' on the Rock Island train
Got the Rock Island blues, just waitin' on the Rock Island train
I got a girl in Texas, I'm afraid to call her name

Don't you wish your girl was long and lean like mine?
Don't you wish your girl was long and lean like mine?
Lord, she ain't good-looking, but she sure does take her time

Ooh, baby, where'd you stay last night?
Said, "Baby, baby, where'd you stay last night?"
You know you didn't come home 'til the moon was shining bright
Hey, come on
Oh, yeah
Hit it, baby

Oh, I'm gonna wash my face in the Gulf of Mexico
Gonna wash my face in the Gulf of Mexico
And I'm gonna eat my breakfast a thousand miles below

I ain't got no woman, ain't got no lady friend
Ain't got no woman, ain't got no lady friend
Ain't got nobody to say, "P.T. where you been?"

I got the Rock Island blues, waitin' on the Rock Island train
Got the Rock Island blues, waitin' on the Rock Island train
Got a girl in Texas, I'm afraid to call her name

Hit it, yeah, yeah, uh, uh, yeah
Where'd that damn train be?
