Down the track this morning she did stroll In an accident her foot got caught in a hole I'm going to tell you the truth Die for a touch of that cold hand I'd be crying every time the Southern makes it's run I'm going to buy them all Cigarettes and chewing tobacco when I can Trials and troubles are heavy for me She's a ramblin' gal Bound to leave her home I begged my brown skin Please don't leave me alone I'm going to make amends Bound to cry to touch her hand I'm going to ride that line ‘Till I see that black train come I'm going to buy them all Cigarettes and chewing tobacco when I can Trials and troubles are heavy for me Now people that Southern Pacific make her run From Chapel Hill to the state of Washington Round the bend at 40 miles 20 tons of loaded frieght a-comin' on Florscheim's stuck and it won't come out My good gal's dead and gone I'm going to buy them all Cigarettes and chewing tobacco when I can Trials and troubles are heavy for me Trials and troubles are heavy for me
