Bound to Ride

Coming down from Tennessee riding on the line
Thinking about the gal of mine couldn’t keep from crying
Honey babe I’m bound to ride
Don’t you want to go
Riding on a streetcar looking o’er the town
Eating saltine crackers ten cents a pound
Chorus
Working on a railroad saving all I can
Looking for that woman that ain’t got no man
Chorus
If I die a railroad man bury me under the ties
So I can see old number nine as she goes rolling by
Chorus
See that train a coming round the bend
Goodbye my little darling I’m on my way again
