Chorus: FC She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady GC spendin' her days on the train FC She's a semi-good-looker but the fast rails they took her GG7C now she's tryin', tryin' to get home again
Verse 1: CFC South station in Boston, to the stock yards of Austin G from the Florida sunshine, to the New Orlean's rain CFC Now that the railpacks have taken the best tracks GC She's tryin', tryin' to get home again
Chorus: She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady spendin' her days on the train Once a pullen car traveller, the switchmen won't have her She's tryin', tryin' to get home again
Verse 2: Once a high born loaner, thought he could own her he bought her a fur coat and a big diamond ring but she hocked 'em for cold cash left town on the Wabash Never thinkin', never thinkin' of home way back then
Verse 3 (KEY-CHANGE: same chord pattern but in the key of D!):
But the rails are now rusty, and the diamond got dusty and the gold plated watches have taken their toll And the railroads are dyin', and the lady is cryin' on a bus to Kentucky at home that's her goal
Chorus (still in D): She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady spendin' her days on the train She's a semi-good-looker but the fast rails they took her now she's tryin', tryin' to get home again DGAD On a bus to Kentucky at home once again
