[Verse 1]
I'm William Callahan
I used to be a ramblin' man
I left home at seventeen
Hopped a freight to Birmingham
Started poor as Kentucky coal
Lined my pockets with Denver gold
I've been cold as Alaska snow
Searching for the sun
[Chorus 1]
It was a long time ago
I had a restless soul
Trains come and whistles blow
I let 'em roll
[Verse 2]
This is my wife, Angeline
She used to be a cajun queen
I took her from the mayor's son
Bourbon Street, New Orleans
She had a will no man could tame
She took her chances when they came
Left with me on a midnight train
Searching for the sun
I'm William Callahan
I used to be a ramblin' man

Hopped a freight to Birmingham

Lined my pockets with Denver gold
I've been cold as Alaska snow

[Chorus 1]
It was a long time ago
I had a restless soul
Trains come and whistles blow
I let 'em roll

Bourbon Street, New Orleans
She had a will no man could tame
She took her chances when they came
Left with me on a midnight train
Searching for the sun
