[Verse 1]
Ev'ry night when the sun goes in
Ev'ry night, every night when the sun goes in
Yes, ev'ry night when the sun goes in
I hang my head and mournful cry

[Verse 2]
True love, don't weep; true love, don't you mourn
True love, don't you weep; true love, don't mourn
True love, don't weep and don't you mourn for me
I'm goin' down to Marble town

[Verse 3]
I wish to the Lord that train would come
I wish to the Lord that train would come
I wish to the Lord that train would come
To take me back where I come from

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
I wish to the Lord my babe was born
And sittin' on, sittin' on his daddy's knee
And me, poor girl, I wish I was dead and gone
With the green grass growin' over me
[Verse 5]
Ev'ry night when the sun goes in
Ev'ry night when the sun goes in
Yes, ev'ry night, ev'ry night when the sun goes in
I hang my head and mournful cry
