Ridin On The Cotton Belt

G
Ridin' on the Cotton Belt Cleveland County's where I long to be
C
I got onto Brinkley and every mile I make is a memory
G
This boxcar's cold and windy and the dust goes around in circles in the air
       C              D                                           G
But my hard times are behind me and I'm returnin' home so I don't care

        C
And I'm ridin' on the Cotton Belt railroad line
       G
In the pitchin' rolling rhythm and the noise
C                                        G             D           G
Railroad men are friends of mine and I'm ridin' on the Cotton Belt boys

G
Ridin' on the Cotton Belt across that little river called Saline
C
That's where I went fishin' and I hunted in her bottoms as a teen
    G
Now just ahead's a farmhouse and in the kitchen window there's a light
         C                 D                                     G
And I've just got fourteen dollars but I'm taking it myself home tonight

        C
And I'm ridin' on the Cotton Belt railroad line
       G
In the pitchin' rolling rhythm and the noise
C                                        G             D           G

G
Jumpin' off the Cotton Belt ain't easy when she's going forty per
      C
But I see my wife standin' there hoping that I'm coming home to her
        G
I got a few new cuts and bruises but this old working hobo's made a home
C               Dm                                              G
So long to your Cotton Belt thank you for the ride keep rolling on
