What you going to do when they send your man to war
You what going to do when they send man to your war
What you going to do when they send your man to war
I'm going to drink muddy water go sleep in a hollow log
Ain't got nobody i'm all here by myself
Ain't got nobody i'm all here by myself
Ain't got nobody i'm all here by myself
Well these women don't care but the men don't need me
Here
Well i'm going to the river going to walk it up and down
Well i'm going to the river walk it up and down
Well i'm going to the river walk it up and down
If i don't find fourteen i'm going to jump overboard and drown
If i shine could my light like a headlight on some train
If i could shine my light like a headlight on some train
If i could shine my light like a headlight on some train
I would shine my light in corinna's brain
Well they tell me that southbound train had a wreck last night
That southbound train had a wreck last night
That southbound train had a wreck last night
You little section foreman ain't treating your railroad right
Well the girl i love is the one i crave to see
Woman i love the one i crave to see
Woman i love the one i crave to see
Well she's living in memphis and the fool won't write to me
Now tell me woman what have i said and done
Ooee mama what have i said and done
Ooee mama what have i said and done
You treat me like my trouble have just begun
