I'm Texas bound, freight train on my mind I'm Texas bound, I got a freight train on my mind If you miss me on the local, look fo me on the blind My suitcase is packed, my trunk's already on My suitcase is packed, my trunk's already on And you can know by that, your sweet papa's soon to be gone Just look around the corner, see that passenger train Just look around the corner, see that passenger train Be a long, long time 'fore you see my face again Takes a good old fireman, a cool kind engineer It takes a good old fireman, cool kind engineer Said to pull that train, take me away from here I'm Texas bound, got no time to lose I'm Texas bound, got no time to lose 'Cause my sweet mama quit me, left me with the Texas blues
