[Verse 1]
She was counting out the window of the outbound train
All the poles of the telegraph
And the rock-a-bye rhythm in the song of the rails
Couldn't make the sweeper laugh
[Chorus]
Down, down, down so deep
Down, down drowning in his sleep
Tommy's coming home again
[Verse 2]
And a hawk hovered high above a skinny jackrabbit
Pursued by a hungry fox
And a broker awoke her from a fitful slumber
Then consulted his shares and his stocks
[Chorus]
Down, down, down they go
Down, down how he'll never know
Tommy's coming home again
And it's almost April Fools' Day
[Verse 3]
As he glanced on his paper looking through the veil
He could see she was really upset
As she tucked back the ribbon in a velvet box
As he offered her a cigarette
She was counting out the window of the outbound train
All the poles of the telegraph
And the rock-a-bye rhythm in the song of the rails
Couldn't make the sweeper laugh
[Chorus]
Down, down, down so deep
Down, down drowning in his sleep
Tommy's coming home again
[Verse 2]
And a hawk hovered high above a skinny jackrabbit
Pursued by a hungry fox
And a broker awoke her from a fitful slumber
Then consulted his shares and his stocks
[Chorus]
Down, down, down they go
Down, down how he'll never know
Tommy's coming home again
And it's almost April Fools' Day
[Verse 3]
As he glanced on his paper looking through the veil
He could see she was really upset
As she tucked back the ribbon in a velvet box
As he offered her a cigarette
