Well I went down to the depot and I looked up on the board
I went down to the depot and I looked up on the board
It read it's good times here
but better on down the road
I’ll eat my breakfast here get my dinner in New Orleans
Eat my breakfast here get my dinner in New Orleans
I'm going to get me a Momma
Lord I ain't never seen
If your house should catch afire and there ain’t no water round
If your house should catch afire and there ain’t no water round
I’ll pitch my trunk out the window And let her burn right on down
Lord, I ain’t gonna marry and I ain’t gonna settle down
Lord, I ain’t gonna marry and I ain’t gonna settle down
I’m gonna be around ‘til the police shoot me down
Where was you Momma when the train left the shed
Where was you Momma when the train left the shed
Standin' in my front door wishin' I was dead
A rockabilly version by Doug Stone (in G) –
