Nothin’ I Can Do About It Now (2:46)
They shoveled in the coal that turned the mountains black
My baby’s on that train and she ain’t comin’ back
That lonesome whistle let’s me know
They won’t turn around
And there’s nothin’ I can do about it now

Roll, rollin’
Rollin’ and they ain’t slowin’ down
They keep roll, roll rollin’
And there’s nothin’ I can do about it now

That steel was cold to touch as I hammered on the side
Ticket, (ticket) please if you want to ride
They kicked me off and carried my love
Down to the next town
And there’s nothin’ I can do about it now

Roll, rollin’
Rollin’ and they ain’t slowin’ down
They keep roll, roll rollin’
And there’s nothin’ I can do about it now

I’m a full grown man I don’t like to cry
Tried to hold them back but I done lost the fight
Now their runnin’ from my eyes
On this cold, cold ground
And there’s nothin’ I can do about it now

Roll, rollin’
Rollin’ and they ain’t slowin’ down
They keep roll, roll rollin’
And there’s nothin’ I can do about it now

Roll, rollin’
Rollin’ and they ain’t slowin’ down
They keep roll, roll rollin’
And there’s nothin’ I can do about it now

No there’s nothin’ I can do…. about it now
