[Verse 1]
Where were you when the train left town?
I's standin' on the corner with my head hung down
Hey, that train that carried my girl from town
Hey, hey, hey, hey-hey-hey

[Verse 2]
Wish to the Lord that that train would wreck
Kill the engineer and break the pullman's neck
Hey, that train that carried my girl from town
Hey, hey, hey, hey-hey-hey

[Verse 3]
If I had a gun, I'd let that hammer down
Kill the driver brought from my girl from this town
Hey, that train that carried my girl from town
Hey, hey, hey, hеy-hey-hey

[Verse 4]
Gonna find that train, I'm gonna bring her back
'Causе that woman's got some of my money sack
Hey, that train that carried my girl from town
Hey, hey, hey, hey-hey-hey

[Verse 5]
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Show me the woman that a man can trust
Hey, that train that carried my girl from town
Hey, hey, hey, hey-hey-hey

[Outro]
Hey, hey, hey, hey-hey-hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey-hey-hey
