Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]In the heat of the day down
in Mobile Alabama
Working on the railroad with
the steel driving hammer
I [C]gotta get some money to buy
some brand new shoes
[G]Tryin' to find somebody to
take away these blues
[D]"She don't love me" hear them
singing in the [G]sun
Payday's coming and my work

[Interlude 1]
is all done
[G]
[C][G]
[D][G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Well, in the evening when
the sun is sinking low
All day I been waiting for
the whistle to blow
[C]Sitting in a tee pee built
right on the tracks
[G]Rolling them bones until the
foreman comes back
[D]Pick up you belongings boys
and scatter about
We've got an [G]off-schedule train train comin' two miles out

[Interlude 2]
[Gm][G]
[Bb][C][Gm][G]
[Gm][G][C][Bb][Gm][Bb]
[Gm]Everybody's

[Verse 3]
[G]scrambling,
running around
Picking up their money,
tearing the tee pee down
[C]Foreman wants to panic,
'bout to go insane
Try[G]ing to get the workers
out the way of the train
En[D]gineer blows the whistle
loud and long
[G]Can't stop the train, have to let it roll on

[Outro 1]
[G]
[C]
