[Chorus 1]
Baby, here I am
By the railroad tracks
Waiting for my baby
Because he's coming back
Coming back to me
On the 503
And it won't be long
No, it won't be long
[Verse 1]
I've been so lonesome
Since the man has been gone
There isn't a thing worth mentioning
Nothing been going on
[Chorus 2]
And that's why I know
When the whistle blows
Yeah, that it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long
[Verse 2]
My daddy told me
When he said goodbye
Yes, he did
"I'll be back, baby
Baby, by and by,"
And that's why I waited
So doggone long, yeah
Can't you see how happy I am?
Because the man is coming home
Baby, here I am
By the railroad tracks
Waiting for my baby
Because he's coming back
Coming back to me
On the 503
And it won't be long
No, it won't be long
[Verse 1]
I've been so lonesome
Since the man has been gone
There isn't a thing worth mentioning
Nothing been going on
[Chorus 2]
And that's why I know
When the whistle blows
Yeah, that it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long
[Verse 2]
My daddy told me
When he said goodbye
Yes, he did
"I'll be back, baby
Baby, by and by,"
And that's why I waited
So doggone long, yeah
Can't you see how happy I am?
Because the man is coming home
