Natalie Noone - Steel Rail Blues

★ intro ★
Ooh ooh ooh, hoo hoo hoo, ooh

★ verse 1 ★
Well, i got my mail late last night
A letter from the man who found the time to write
To his lonesome girl somewhere in the night
He sent me a railroad ticket
To take me to his lovin' arms
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one i love

★ verse 2 ★
Well, i been out here many long days
Haven't found a place that i could call my own
Not a two-bit bed to lay my body on
I been stood up, i been shook down
I've been dragged into the sand
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one i love

★ chorus ★
Ooh ooh ooh, hoo hoo hoo, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

★ verse 3 ★
Well, i've been uptight most every night
Walkin' along the streets of this old town
Not a friend around to tell my troubles to
My good old car, she done broke down
'cause i drove it into the ground
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one i love

★ verse 4 ★
Well, i look over yonder across the plain
The big drive wheels are poundin' along the ground
Gonna get on board and i'll be homeward bound
Now i ain't had a home cooked meal
And lord, i need one now
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one i love

★ chorus ★
Ooh ooh ooh, hoo hoo hoo, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

★ verse 5 ★
Now here i am with my hat in my hand
Standin' on the broad highway, would you give a ride
To a lonesome girl who missed the train last night
I went in town for one last round
And i gambled my ticket away
And the big steel rail won't carry me home to the one i love

★ chorus ★
Ooh ooh ooh, hoo hoo hoo, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, hoo hoo hoo
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
