Transcendent Ramblin' Railroad Blues Lyrics - Colter Wall

Lay me down easy 

Lay me down hard 

Light my cigarette and make my bed 

Somewhere beneath the stars 

I was born a blue child 

Of the wild western sky 

But I left my prairie home 

Found a boxcar for to ride 

Now I'm way down in Okema 

Earning blisters on my feet 

With my guitar and my buck knife 

Thumbing down Woody Guthrie Street

So lay me down easy 

Lay me down hard 

Light my cigarette and make my bed 

Somewhere beneath the stars 

Don't look for me in glory 

Don't look for me below 

'Cause I'll be riding on that freight 

Where the souls of ramblers go 

And there's a sadness that follows 

Most everywhere I roam 

You can see it on my smile 

You can smell it on my clothes 

Sometimes all that running 

It never lasts too long 

So keep me good and loaded 

And I'll keep singing songs 

Lay me down easy 

Lay me down hard 

Light my cigarette and make my bed 

Somewhere beneath the stars 

Don't look for me in glory 

Don't look for me below 

'Cause I'll be riding on that freight 

Where the souls of ramblers go 

If I don't leave here tomorrow 

I believe I'll blow out my brains 

But either way there'll be sorrow 

And you won't be seeing me again 

Lay me down easy 

Lay me down hard 

Light my cigarette and make my bed 

Somewhere beneath the stars 

Don't look for me in glory 

Dont look for me below 

'Cause I'll be riding on that freight 

Where the souls of ramblers go
