Anniversary Blue Yodel Merle Haggard

I was a stranger passing through your town
Honey, I was a stranger passing through your town
When I asked you a favor, good gal, you turned me down
Sure did

You may see me talking and walking down the railroad track
You may see me talking, walking down the railroad track
But good gal, you done me wrong, I ain't never coming back
It's the truth, honey

Yo-de-lay-ee ad-ee-oh-ay

Honey, I'm so lonesome, I don't know what to do
Honey, I'm so lonesome, I don't know what to do
They way you treat me, Mama, Lord, I hope you're lonesome too
Lord, Lord, Lord

Yo-de-lay-ee ad-ee-oh-ay
Pick one, boy
And man, let's go to town

I rode the Southern, I rode the L&N, yes I have
I rode the Southern, I rode the L&N
And if the police don't get me, I'm gonna ride them again

Say hey, Mr. Brakeman, don't put me off your train
Please, Mr. Brakeman, don't put me off your train
'Cause the weather is cold and it looks like it's going to rain
