I went down to the railroad yard
Bb                      F
To watch the train roll by
Bb                     F
Knew that train would roll that day
       C                 F
But I did not know what time.

I did not know what time, boys
Bb                 F
Did not know what time
Bb                    F
Knew the train would roll that day
       C                 F
But I did not know what time.

Good morning, Mister railroad man
      Bb                       F
What time does your train roll by?
 Bb               F
Nine sixteen and two forty four
  C                       F
Twenty five minutes 'til five.

At nine sixteen, two forty four,
Bb                        F
Twenty five minutes 'til five.
Bb                 F
Thank you, Mister railroad man,
         C                    F
I wanna watch your train roll by.

Standing on the platform,
  Bb           F
Smoking a big cigar,
  Bb              F
Waitin' for some old freight train
       C               F
that carries an empty car.

I rode her down to Danville town,
     Bb                  F
got stuck on a Danville girl,
Bb                 F
Bet your life she was a pearl,
     C                  F
she wore that Danville curl.
     F
She wore her hat on the back of her head
Bb                        F
like high tone people all do,
Bb                    F
Very next train come down that track,
   C            F
I bid that gal adieu.
