==============================
Waitin' on that train
Comin' down that track
Gonna bring my baby
Carry my girl back
Hear the whistle blow
Lonely on the wind
Echoes in my heart
Call her name again
By and by
Won't be by myself no more
The train rolls up
Hear the brakeman call
As the steam boils out
"All aboard y'all!"
I said "Hold on , boy!"
Fightin' back a tear
But he shook his head, and said
"Nobody gettin' off here"
By and by
Won't be by myself no more
The train rolls out
Brain won't sit still
Get the realization
I was fit to kill
See the smoke creep past
My cryin' eyes
She's with someone else
Told her better lies
By and by
Won't be by myself no more
By and by
Won't be by myself no more
Goodbye Baby
Won't be by myself for long
