My Baby Leaving

Well, that train is leaving, and my baby gotta go
Well, that train is leaving, and my baby gotta go
Well, her mother is sick, and her daddy's very low
Well, I watched that train, till it vent around the bend
Well, I watched that train, till it went around the bend
Well, I say I would never, see my baby's face again

Well, that old dirty fireman and that cruel engineer
Well, that old dirty fireman and that cruel engineer
Well, that dirty conductor, waved that train from here

Every time I hear that whistle, Lord, I just can't help from crying
Every time I hear that whistle, Lord, I just can't help from crying
Well, that old dirty train, got that little gal I call mine

"Old train going way around the bend, you know Sticks
Old whistle blows lonesome way back at you like this, you know"

If I could holler, just like a mountain jack
Lord, if I could holler, just like a mountain jack
I'd go way up on that mountain, call my loving baby back
I'll call her back, I'll call her back
I'll call her back, I'll call her back
