Some of the lines may not make sense to ya :-) # Comments/suggestions/flames all to tgtchb@chem.tue.nl (Bo) Chorus: She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady spendin' her days on the train She's a semi-good-looker but the fast rails they took her now she's tryin', tryin' to get home again Verse 1: South station in Boston, to the stock yards of Austin from the Florida sunshine, to the New Orlean's rain Now that the rail have taken the She's tryin', tryin' to get home again Chorus: She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady spendin' her days on the train Once a pullen car traveller, the switchmen won't have her She's tryin', tryin' to get home again Verse 2: Once a high born loaner, thought he could own her he bought her a fur coat and a big diamond ring but she him for cold cash in the town there Never thinkin', never thinkin' of home way back then Verse 3 (KEY-CHANGE: same chord pattern but in the key of D!): But the rails are now rusty, and the diamond got dusty and the gold plated watches have taken their toll And the railroads are dyin', and the lady is cryin' on a bus to Kentucky at home that's her goal Chorus (still in ): She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady spendin' her days on the train She's a semi-good-looker but the fast rails they took her now she's tryin', tryin' to get home again On a bus to Kentucky at home once again
