1
(Chorus)
2
I'm going away my baby,
3
I'm gonna leave you pretty gal
4
For a train passed by while you lay sleeping
5
I'll write you a letter on a dusty boxcar wall
6
(Verse 1)
7
I once had a true love in old Kentucky
8
I once had a love in sunny Tennessee
9
But a New York gal brought me pain and sadness
10
Now I'm here as lonely as I can be
11
(Chorus)
12
I'm going away my baby,
13
I'm gonna leave you pretty gal
14
For a train passed by while you lay sleeping
15
I'll write you a letter on a dusty boxcar wall
16
(Verse 2)
17
City women bring you grief and sorrow
18
Country girls are as sweet as they can be
19
City women are cold and they are shallow
20
But a country girl's love is as deep as the deep blue sea
21
(Chorus)
22
I'm going away my baby,
23
I'm gonna leave you pretty gal
24
For a train passed by while you lay sleeping
25
I'll write you a letter on a dusty boxcar wall
26
(Instrumental)
27
(Verse 3)
28
Oh when I die and go to heaven
29
That'll be the last train ride I'll ever see
30
They'll put a silver spike upon my gravestone
31
And my casket beneath a weeping willow tree
32
(Chorus)
33
I'm going away my baby,
34
I'm gonna leave you pretty gal
35
For a train passed by while you lay sleeping
36
I'll write you a letter on a dusty boxcar wall
