| Steel Rail Blues |
| Sweethearts of the Rodeo |
| Well I got my mail late last night a letter from a boy who found the time to write |
| To his lonesome girl somewhere in the night |
| He sent me a railroad ticket too to take me to his lovin' arms |
| And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love |
| I been out here many long days I haven't found a place that I could call my own |
| Not a two bit bed to lay my body on |
| I been stood up I bin shook down I bin dragged into the sand |
| And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love |
| uh uh uhc. |
| I been up tight most every night walkin' along the streets of this old town |
| Not a friend around to tell my troubles to |
| My good old car she done broke down cause I drove it into the ground |
| And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love |
| Well I look over yonder cross the plain |
| The big drive wheels a poundin' along the ground |
| Gonna get on board and I'll be homeward bound |
| Now I ain't had a home cooked meal and Lord I need one now |
| And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love |
