Lyrics
Engine, engine, engine
Rollin' down the line
Take me to my baby one more time
She threw me out this mornin'
For being drunk last night
I hope that I can make her
Change her mind
I woke up in this boxcar
Bottle in my hand
Damned if I know or understand
I don't remember leavin'
And all that I can hear
Is that lonesome whistle
Blowin' in my ear
I'm southbound on a northbound train
Devil got my soul
Sinkin' down lower with every mile I go
Take me to her lovin' arms
Back where I belong
I need to tell somebody I was wrong
Engine, engine, engine
Rollin' down the line
Take me to my baby one more time
She threw me out this mornin'
For being drunk last night
I hope that I can make her
Change her mind
