I went down to the railroad yard, watch that train come by
Knew the train would roll that day, but I did not know what time
I did not know what time, boys, did not know what time
Knew the train would roll that day but I did not know what time
Good morning Mister Railroad Man, what time does your train roll by?
Nine-sixteen and two-forty-four, twenty-five minutes 'til five
At nine-sixteen, two-forty-four, twenty-five minutes 'til five
Thank you Mister Railroad Man, I wanna watch your train roll by
Standing on the platform, smoking a big cigar
Waitin' for some old freight train that carries an empty car
I rode her down to Danville Town, got stuck on a Danville girl
Bet your life she was a pearl, she wore that Danville curl
She wore her hat on the back of her head like high-tone people all do
Very next train come down that track, I bid that girl adieu
I bid that girl adieu, poor boys, I bid that girl adieu
The very next train come down that track, I bid that girl adieu
Knew the train would roll that day, but I did not know what time
I did not know what time, boys, did not know what time
Knew the train would roll that day but I did not know what time
Good morning Mister Railroad Man, what time does your train roll by?
Nine-sixteen and two-forty-four, twenty-five minutes 'til five
At nine-sixteen, two-forty-four, twenty-five minutes 'til five
Thank you Mister Railroad Man, I wanna watch your train roll by
Standing on the platform, smoking a big cigar
Waitin' for some old freight train that carries an empty car
I rode her down to Danville Town, got stuck on a Danville girl
Bet your life she was a pearl, she wore that Danville curl
She wore her hat on the back of her head like high-tone people all do
Very next train come down that track, I bid that girl adieu
I bid that girl adieu, poor boys, I bid that girl adieu
The very next train come down that track, I bid that girl adieu
