I've been riding on this train
|
Drinking whiskey for my pain
|
Another good ol' boy headed home
|
|
And every town I see
|
Wants to take a part of me
|
That's the price that you pay when you roam
|
|
Well I cry when I have to
|
And I lie when I can
|
But I die a little slower
|
On the train to Birmingham
|
|
I walked holes in both my shoes
|
Got a guitar full of blues
|
And a one way ticket for my remedy
|
|
It's the same ol' lonesome song
|
I've been singing all night long
|
Hey, porter, are we out of Tennessee
|
|
Well I cry when I have to
|
And I lie when I can
|
But I die a little slower
|
On the train to Birmingham
|
|
Well every year I take this train
|
To Alabama in the rain
|
When I get that lonesome feelin' in my bones
|
|
I never get to Birmingham
|
But gettin' there ain't the plan
|
I just like the feel of going home
|
|
Well I cry when I have to
|
And I lie when I can
|
But I die a little slower
|
On the train to Birmingham
|
On the train to Birmingham
|
