Bw Railroad Blues Lyrics - Singles - Townes Van Zandt

I'm gonna lay my troubles on a railroad track 

I'm gonna ride, I ain't lookin' back 

I tried to stop but I can't unpack 

Gotta get used to the clickety clack 

The big ol' wheels and the smokin' stack 

Ah, babe I gotta go, babe I gotta go 

Loved you honey heart and soul 

I swear you're the sweetest thing I know 

I loved you true and I told you so 

I told you too come time to go 

I'll be gone with any ol' wind that blows 

Ah, babe I just can't stay and it's bound to be that way 

There's lots of things I'd like to see 

From the mountains to the shining sea 

Up in the sky where the wind blows free 

To the cities down below 

Ah, babe, I just don't know, I got trouble, trouble in my soul 

I got trouble in my soul 

I'm gonna lay my trouble on a railroad track 

I'm gonna ride, I ain't lookin back 

I tried to stop but I can't unpack 

Go to sleep with the clickety clack 

The big ol' wheels and the smokin' stack 

Ah, babe I'm bound to go, I got trouble in my soul 

I got trouble, trouble in my soul
