Ida Cox - Bama bound blues

Mister engineer, please turn your train around Mister engineer, please turn your train around I believe to my soul, my man is Bama bound Take me back daddy, try me one more time Take me back daddy, try me one more time And if I don't please you, break my neck for trying But the train passed by with my daddy on the inside The train passed by with my daddy on the inside I could do nothing but hang my head and I cried My mama told me, my papa told me too My mama told me, my papa told me too Some brownskin man is going to be the death of you I'm Bama bound, ain't got no railroad fare I'm Bama bound, ain't got no railroad fare If the blues don't leave me, I'll walk the railroad there
