Hand me down my walkin' cane Hand me down my walkin' cane Hand me down my walkin' cane I'm leaving the midnight train All my sins are taken away Wish I listened, what my Moma said Wish I listened, what my Moma said If I listened to what Moma said I'd be sleeping on a better bed All my sins are taken away taken away All my sins are taken away taken away My aunt Mattie, she told me not to go (aunt Mattie, told me not to go) My aunt Mattie, she told me told not to go (aunt Mattie, told me not to go) Now she's listening on the radio Hand me down my walkin' cane Hand me down my walkin' cane Hand me down my walkin' cane I'm leaving the midnight train All my sins are taken away All my sins are taken away All my sins are taken away
