Railroad Bill Lyrics & Tabs by Greg Brown
Railroad Bill
guitar chords lyrics
Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill,
He never worked and he never will
I'm gonna ride old Railroad Bill.
Railroad Bill he was a mighty mean man
He shot the midnight lantern out t he brakeman's hand
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
Railroad Bill took my wife,
Said if I didn't like it, he would take my life,
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
Going up on a mountain, going out west,
Thirty-eight special sticking out of my vest,
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
Buy me a pistol just as long as my arm,
Kill everybody ever done me harm,
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
Buy me a pistol just as long as my arm,
Kill everybody ever done me harm,
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
I've got a thirty-eight special on a forty-five frame,
How in the world can I miss him when I got dead aim,
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
Buy me a pistol just as long as my arm,
Kill everybody ever done me harm,
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
Honey, honey, think I'm a fool,
Think I would quit you while the weather is cool,
I'm going to ride old Railroad Bill.
