Railroad Lady
By: Jimmy Buffett, Jerry Jeff Walker
1973
Chorus:
FShe's a railroad lady
Just a Clittle bit shady
G7Spendin' her days on the Ctrain
She's a Fsemi-good looker
But the Cfast rails they took her
Now she's G7tryin', just tryin' to Fget Ghome Cagain
South CStation in C7Boston to the Ffreightyards of CAustin
>From the Florida sunshine to the New OrleansG7 rain
CNow that the C7railpacks
Has Ftaken the Cbest tracks
She's tryin', just tryin' to G7get home aCgain
Chorus:
She's a railroad lady
Just a little bit shady
Spendin' her life on a train
Once a pullman car traveller
Now the brakeman won't have her
She's tryin', just tryin' to get home again
Once a high ballin' loner he thought he could own her
Bought her a fur and a big diamond ring
She hocked 'em for cold cash
Left town on the Wabash
Never thinkin', never thinkin' of home way back then
But the rails are now rusty
The dinin' car's dusty
Gold plated watches have taken their toll
Yeah the railroads are dyin'
And the lady she's cryin'
On a bus to Kentucky and home that's her goal
Chorus:
She's a railroad lady
Just a little bit shady
Spendin' her life on a train
She's a semi-good looker
But the fast rails they took her
Now she's tryin', just tryin' to get home again
CYes on a G7bus to Kentucky and Fhome Gonce Cagain
Enjoy!
