Bald Knob Arkansas

I’m leaving town this morning you can bet I’m homeward bound
I done spent all of my money and I gotta get out of town
I’m feeling kind of hungry, got nothing in my crawl
I’m on my way to a little pub back in Bald Knob Arkansas

Bald Knob Arkansas, to see my Linda Lou
I will be her loving man that will always love her true
Till I’m bald headed too

Got a blue eyed gal a waiting, there with a broken heart
Gonna settle down and buy her a cow and we never more will part
I’ll dress her up in calico, buy her a wedding ring
I’ll order it on the radio on the first day of the spring

You’ve heard about the mule train, many years ago
Traveling through the desert, through the rain and through the snow
But now they’ve got the modern train they call the cannonball
I’ll catch you at the station back at Bald Knob Arkansas
