The Golden Rocket

From old Montana down to Alabam'
 I've been before and I'll travel again
 You triflin' women can't keep a good man down
 You dealt the cards but you missed a play
 So hit the road and be on your way
 Gonna board the golden rocket and leave this town
 I was a good engine a-runnin' on time
 But baby, I'm switchin' to another line
 So honey never hang your signal out for me
 I'm tired of runnin' on the same old track
 Bought a one way ticket and I won't be back
 This golden rocket's gonna roll my blues away
 ♪
 ♪
 Hear that lonesome whistle blow
 That's your cue and by now, you know
 That I got another true love waitin' in Tennessee
 This midnight special is burnin' the rail
 So woman, don't try to follow my tail
 This golden rocket's gonna roll my blues away
 Hear her thunder run through the night
 This golden rocket is doin' me right
 And that sunny old Southland sure is a part of me
 Now from your call, board erase my name
 Your fire went out, you done lost your flame
 And this golden rocket is rollin' my blues away
 ♪
 That old conductor, he seemed to know
 You done me wrong, I was feelin' low
 For he yelled aloud, "We're over that Dixon line!"
 The brakeman started singin' a song
 Said you're worried now, but it won't be long
 This golden rocket is leavin' your blues behind
 ♪
 Then the porter yelled with his southern drawl
 "Let's rise and shine, good mornin' y'all!"
 And I sprang to my feet to greet the newborn day
 When I kissed my baby at the station door
 The whistle blew like it never before
 On the golden rocket that rolled my blues away
