1
There's a dead girl's body
2
By the railroad track
3
She's waiting for a train
4
Jimmy left town like a fade to black
5
In his Camero in the rain
6
She wrote it down and burned it
7
Jimmy loves who knows who
8
Well he wasn't from around this town
9
And mister neither are you
10
She was listening into that Monon line
11
For the Wabash Cannonball
12
Put your head on the rail
13
And you can hear her whine
14
Just like a caterwaul
15
She wrote it down and burned it
16
She clutched it flaming to her chest
17
It said Jimmy loves cars
18
And Jimmy loves trains
19
Ah but Jimmy, Jimmy loves me best
20
There's a dead girl's body
21
By the railroad track
22
Waiting for a train
23
Well I guess Jimmy never did come back
24
In his Camaro in the rain
25
She wrote it down and burned it
26
Yeah the only way I know
27
You could still read some words
28
In the ashes there
29
But she could not watch him go
30
She wrote it down and burned it
