Lyrics:

Walkin' on down the track, bringing my baby back
Well, I'm on my way to that muddy water home
Things ain't been the same since she got on that train
Done jumped that rail, done left me all alone

When you hear that whistle blow, I'm headed down the road
Gonna bring my darlin' back where she belongs
Don't sleep through the night without that woman to hold me tight
Come mornin' look and I'll be gone

Walkin' on down the line, leavin' these blues behind
She's the only one who would ever let me know
Now I'm thinking back on the day before she went away
Wonderin' why she ever had to go

When you hear that whistle moan, I'm headed down the road
Gonna bring my darlin' back where she belongs
Can't sleep through the night without that woman to hold me tight
Come mornin', look and I'll be gone

Walkin' on down the track, bringing my baby back
Well, I'm on my way to that muddy water home
Things ain't been the same since she got on that train
Done jumped that rail, done left me all alone

When you hear that whistle moan I'm headed down the road
Gonna bring my darlin' back where she belongs
Can't sleep through the night without that woman to hold me tight
Come mornin', look and I'll be gone

Well, I'm on my way to that muddy water home
