Lyrics — “Chicago Train Blues” by @germancowboy

Woke up this mornin’, Your side of the bed was cold. Woke up this mornin’, Your side of the bed was cold. My baby gone to Chicago, Left me here alone. She caught that northbound train, Just before the sun went down. She caught that northbound train, Just before the sun went down. Now I walk these dusty roads, With nobody around. Oh, Chicago, Chicago, Take good care of my girl. Oh, Chicago, Chicago, Take good care of my girl. She’s the sweetest little woman In this whole wide world. I ain’t got much money, But I’m savin’ what I can. I ain’t got much money, But I’m savin’ what I can. Gonna buy myself a ticket, Leave this Southern land. My baby wrote me Tuesday, Said, “Come on when you can.” My baby wrote me Tuesday, Said, “Come on when you can.” Said she got a little room there, And she needs my lovin’ hand. So whistle, northbound train, I’ll be ridin’ you someday. Whistle, northbound train, I’ll be ridin’ you someday. Gonna find my girl in Chicago, And I ain’t comin’ back this way. Chicago, Chicago, I can see them city lights. Chicago, Chicago, I can see them city lights. When I hold my baby again, Everything gonna be all right.
