75-71
Alright
Down Three-L to old Kenton Vale
Asking 'round if my baby there
Said she gone to Boone, Mt. Zion son
Livin' off the 71, the 71
Livin' off of the 71
Spy my baby, easy as she go
Said she's going down the Louisville Road
Well, I'm going Mt. Washington
I can't, darlin', cat caught my tongue
Cat caught my tongue
Said, I can't, cat caught my tongue
I'm going down the 75
Get to Lexington before I die
Lexington gal, she is kind and sweet
Handsome as she is neat, as she is neat
Handsome as she is neat
Then I'm going to Louisville, gonna drown
Thinkin' about my baby, turn back around
Catch me a ticket on the riverboat
Can't fly to her, I guess I float
I guess I'll float
Fly to her, I guess I float
Met a hobo, ask him where he going
Said, "I'm headed home and it ain't no fun
Last night I laid my head on a railroad iron
Let the train satisfy my mind
Satisfy my mind
Let that train satisfy my mind
Well, I know an engineer, the L and N
Go with him to another land
Knows somewhere we can eat and sleep
Down south Memphis, Tennessee
Memphis, Tennessee
Down south Memphis, Tennessee"
I said, "None for me
I'm going to the cut in the hill
Live today darlin', don't get killed
I'm going see you on the old Route 8
Catch me a ride on Anderson Ferry
Anderson Ferry
Catch a ride Anderson Ferry
Then I'm going to Rabbit Hash
Where my baby told me this and that
She said darling, me oh, my
I tell the truth and I never tell no lie
Never tell no lie
I tell the truth and I tell no lie"
