I Got the Train Sittin' Waitin'

(Billy Ray Reynolds)



I took my woman

Down to the local depot

From there to anywhere

If you want to you can go.



I said, ''Now, pretty mama,

I've had myself enough

Of your fussing and your fighting

And it's sure gonna get rough.''



''I got the train sittin' waitin',

Leaving right on time

So if you want to go better get aboard

But you be the one to make up your mind.''



''I've tried to love you woman

Every way I know how

But you keep on a nagging

And I've had it startin' now.''



''If you don't like the way you're living

You know what you can do

Said, ''The trains sitting there,

It's a big black choo-choo.''



''I got the train sittin' waitin'',

Leaving right on time

So if you want to go better get aboard

But you be the one to make up your mind.''



--- Instrumental ---



Well, I looked up on the schedule

and it said nine-thirteen

The central is a leaving

All the lights are turnin' green.



The whistle is a blowin',

Here's your ticket and your pass

The door is open wide

So don't let your coat tail drag.



I got the train sittin' waitin'',

Leaving right on time

So if you want to go better get aboard

But you be the one to make up your mind...''
