Jumped a southbound train to Tallaha**ee Don't know where I'm going, not sure where I been Been confused and lonely many years now And I'm stallin' while my vision clears again And I can hear that seaboard train calling my name And I can hear those railroad angels in my mind They're singing me this song, they're saying that it won't be long Just gotta keep sweet Jesus on your mind
Any place is lonely to be leaving Even if there's nothing left behind So if you ever take that train to Tallaha**ee You better let those RR angels ease your mind Did you ever feel the pain of that rolling boxcar train As it took your brain and body from town to town? I can hear the conductor call, he's saying this is the last stop y'all And you're home if you're Tallaha**ee bound
