Charlie Feathers - South Of Chicago lyrics

I know a place, not very far South of Chicago town South of Chicago, east of the sun I let my true lover down (He caught a train out of town) (He let his true lover down) I got off in Reno, just for a day A stranger, no one knew my name I spent all my money, having some fun I wish I had stayed on the train (He should have stayed on the train) (He should have stayed on the train) Ninety-seven miles, South of Chicago I caught a train westward bound Ninety-seven miles, South of Chicago I let my true lover down (He let his true lover down) (He let his true lover down) The anger in my heart, had simmered down I got to see her again I'm going back, where I left my heart Gonna catch an eastbound train (He had to see her again) (He caught an eastbound train) Ninety-seven miles, South of Chicago Right back where I started from Ninety-seven miles, South of Chicago Back in my true lovers arms (Back in his true lovers arms) (Back in his true lovers arms)
