Ma Rainey - Presenting Ma Rainey

Traveling Blues

Train's at the station, I heard the whistle blow
The train's at the station, I heard the whistle blow
I done bought my ticket and I don't know where I'll go

I went to the depot looked up and down the board
I went to the depot looked up and down the board
I asked the ticket agent "Is my town on this road?"

The ticket agent said "Woman, Don't sit and cry"
The ticket agent said "Woman, Don't you sit and cry
The train blows at this station, but she keeps on passing by

I hear my daddy calling some other woman's name
I hear my daddy calling some other woman's name
I know he don't need me but I'm gonna answer just the same

I'm dangerous and blue, can't stay here no more
I'm dangerous and blue, can't stay here no more
Here come my train folks, and I've got to go
