Take care of my wife and my baby

A-tell 'em I will be back home, someday

Take care of my wife and my baby

A-tell 'em I will be back home, someday

Now, it was stormin', it was raining

Man, the day that she walked away



I walk this old highway

Forty long days an night

I walk this old highway, now

You know, forty long days an night, yeah

Now, an I was just thinkin' about my baby

Man, she just a-won't treat me right, yeah



Now, the sun is growin' hot, mm

Baby, an my shoes is gettin' awful thin

You know, the sun is growin hot, mm

Oh baby, an my shoes is getting awful thin

Now, an I was just wonderin' if my baby

Oh Lord, would take me back again, now?



'Alright Lacey, play'



(harmonica and instrumental)



Lord, the train is blowin'

An it is comin' around the bend, yeah

You know the train is blowin'

An it is comin' around the bend, yeah

You know, an I'm just sittin' here thinkin'

A-will my baby take me back, again?



You know I left my baby

Now, when she was only fo' days old

You know, I left my little baby

A-now, when she was only fo' days old, now

I just hope she don't learn

To call no other man, 'Daddy'

You know, that's what worries me so.
