Verse 1: I took my woman down to the local depot From there to anywhere if you want to you can go I said now pretty mamma I've had myself enough Of your fussing and your fighting and it's sure gonna get rough
Chorus: I got the train sittin' waitin' Leaving right on time So if you want to go, better get aboard But you be the one to make up your mind
Verse 2: I've tried to love you woman every way I know how But you keep on a naggin' and I've had it starting now If you don't like the way you're living you know what you can do Said the trains sitting there it's a big black choo-choo
Chorus I got the train sittin' waitin' Leaving right on time So if you want to go, get yourself aboard But you be the one to make up your mind
Verse 3: Well, I looked up at the schedule and it said nine thirteen The central is a leaving all the lights are turning green The whistle is a blowin' here's your ticket and your pass The door is open wide so don't let your coat tail drag
