Little Children’s Blues
[Verse 1]
As I went down
The railroad track
When that train comes a'rolling by
I waved my hand at the girl that I loved
(my mama)
Hung down my head and I cried
My mama she's gone
My mama she's gone
And she left me to weep and moan
She left me to weep and moan
Just think about it
My poor mother's gone
[Verse 2]
As I went down to the freight depot
When that train comes a'rolling by
I wave my hand at my mama that I love
Hung down my head and I cried
She's gone she's gone she's gone she's gone
And no crying won't bring her back
And the more that I boo hoo
Shе's going further down the track
