Lyrics

In The Heat Of The Day Down In Mobile Alabama
 Working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer
 Gotta make some money to buy some brand new shoes
 Tryin' to find somebody to take away these blues
 "She don't love me" hear them singing in the sun
 Payday's coming and my work is all done
 Later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
 All day I been waiting for the whistle to blow
 Sitting in a teepee built right on the tracks
 Rolling them bones until the foreman comes back
 Pick up you belongings boys and scatter about
 We've got an off-schedule train comin' two miles out
 Everybody's scrambling,'n'jumping around
 Picking up their money, tearing the teepee down
 Foreman wants to panic, 'bout to go insane
 Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
 Engineer blows the whistle long and long
 Can't stop the train, gotta let it roll on
