(Irving Burgess)

It's only been a year or so but it seems so long ago, I packed up my bags and left my home.
|
Been from Fresno to Maine, even worked a boat in Spain. I ain't ever had a bed to call my own.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
'Round this time of day I gets to feelin' low and I wonder who's my baby's latest beau.
|
|
I have gambled and lost. I've been cussed by my boss. Some city gal just took me for a ride.
|
Hope some day I'll get back to my little old country shack. Settle down with my baby at my side.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Someday soon, you hear, gonna save up my fare or maybe I'll just have to ride the rail.
|
If that mornin' train is right, I'll be home before that night and I hope no one will have to go my bail.
|
|
[Chorus]
