South Bound Train

Southbound Train
(P.D., Arr. Deer Creek Boys)

Southbound train’s what I need to get me home
Five long years and I’m so tired of being alone
I wanna ride a southbound train
Summer rain, how I miss that Georgia summer rain
I miss the sunlight shining on my window pane
I wanna ride a southbound train

Oh number nine, please take me home
Pour it on, I’ve been a long time gone

Southbound train’s what I need to get me home
Five long years and I’m so tired of being alone
I wanna ride a southbound train


Railway, take me to the girl I love
Back to the homestead that I’ve been dreaming of
I wanna ride a southbound train
The girl I love, she’s waiting there to be my bride
This ol’ boxcar is a long and lonely ride
I wanna ride a southbound train

Oh number nine, please take me home
Pour it on, I’ve been a long time gone

Southbound train’s what I need to get me home
Five long years and I’m so tired of being alone
I wanna ride a southbound train
