Paul Burlison - Train Kept A-Rollin' (1997)



I caught a train, I met a dame.
She was a hepster, and a real gone dame.
She was pretty, from New York City.
And we trucked on down that ol' fair lane.
With a "heave!" and a "ho!"
Well, I just couldn't let her go.

Get along, sweet little woman,
Get along, better be on your way.
Get along, sweet little woman,
Get along, better be on your way.
With a "heave!" and a "ho!"
Well, I just couldn't let her go.

Well, the train kept a-rollin' all night long.
The train kept a-rollin' all night long.
The train kept a-movin' all night long.
The train kept a-rollin' all night long.
With a "heave!" and a "ho!"
Well, I just couldn't let her go.

Owwwh!

[Instrumental break with vocalizations.]

Owwwh!

Giddy-yup.

Oowwh.

We made a stop in Albuquerque.
She must have thought that I's a real gone jerk.

We got off the train at El Paso,
Our lovin' was so good, Jack, I couldn't let her go.
Get along, well, I just couldn't let her go.

Get along, sweet-e little woman,
Get along, better be on your way.
Get along, sweet little woman,
Get along, better be on your way.
With a "heave!" and a "ho!"
Well, I just couldn't let her go.

Well, that train kept a rollin' all night long.
The train kept a rollin' all night long.
The train kept a rollin' all night long.
The train kept a rollin' all night long.
With a "heave!" and a "ho!"
Well, I just couldn't let her go-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhh.
