Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
(Jimmy Buffett - Jerry [C]Jeff
[G]Wal[C]ker)

[Verse 2]
She's [F]a railroad lady just
[C]a little [G]bit'shady
Spending her days on [C]a train
She's [F]the semi good looker but
[C]the fast rails they took her
Now she's [G]trying just trying
to get home again.
[C]

[Verse 3]
South station in Boston to
[F]the stockyards of [C]Austin
From the Florida sunshine to
the New Orleans [G]rain
Now [C]that the rail packs have
[F]taken the best [C]tracks
She's trying just trying to
[G]get back home again.
[C]

[Verse 4]
She's [F]a railroad lady just a
[C]little [G]bit'shady
Spending her days on [C]a train
She's [F]the semi good looker but
[C]the fast rails they took her
Now she's [G]trying just trying
to get home again.
[C]

[Verse 5]
Once a high- balling loner
[F]thought he could [C]own her
He bought her a fur coat
and a big [G]dimaond ring
But she [C]hug in for cold cash left
[F]town [C]on the Wabash
Never thinking never thinking
of [G]home way back [C]then.

[Verse 6]
But [C]the rails are now rusty the
[F]dining car's [C]dusty
The gold bladed watches
are taking their [G]gold
[C]The railroads're dying
and the [F]lady is cry[C]ing
On a bus to Kentucky and
[G]home that's her goal.
[C]

[Verse 7]
She's a [F]railroad lady just a
[C]little [G]bit'shady
Spending her days on a [C]train
Once [F]a pull man car driver not [C]a
breakment won't have her
She's [G]trying just trying to
get back home again.
[C]

[Verse 8]
On a bus [G]to Kentucky and
[F]home [G]once again...
[C]
