Houston Special Lyrics & Tabs by The Rooftop Singers
Houston Special
guitar chords lyrics
Oh, can't you hear that engine moanin'
As that fast freight goes rollin' by?
Oh, can't you hear that engine moanin'
As that fast freight goes rollin' by?
It's that Houston, Houston Special,
And she's right on time.
Oh, I was standin' on that platform,
And I was ready, ready to go,
Oh, I was standin' on that platform,
And I was ready, ready to go,
And I was waitin' for that Southern,
Southern whistle to blow.
Oh, my mama she done told me,
And my papa done told me, too,
Oh, my mama she done told me,
Oh, my mama she done told me,
And my papa done told me, too,
Oh, my mama she done told me,
And my papa done told me, too,
That if you catch that Southern freight train,
It won't be home to you.
(Repeat first verse)
