Frank Crumit - Down By the Railroad Track şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Frank Crumit

albüm: CRUMIT, Frank: Frank Crumit Returns (1920-1938)


I had a girl named Annabel
She thought the world of me
But for some cause her family
And I could not agree
And if I called there at her house
'Twas sure to start a fight
So for that reason we would take
A walk each Wednesday night
Down by the railroad track
Down by the railroad track
I'd hold her hand and she'd hold mine
Down by the railroad track
Some people spoon in parlour chairs
And some in Ford sedans
But Annabel and I we had
To make some other plans
We couldn't use the parlour
And we had no Ford you see
So every Wednesday night you'd find
Sweet Annabel and me
Down by the railroad track
Down by the railroad track
We'd sit for hours and hours and hours
Down by the railroad track
I courted her for seven months
Until one summer's day
Her father found it out and then
There was the deuce to pay
He said "Young man
Come here to me"
I want a word with you."
And where do you think I found myself
When finally I came to?
Down by the railroad track
Down by the railroad track
The birds were singing merrily
Down by the railroad track
We're married now and settled down
With children of our own
Across the door there hangs a sign
Which says "God Bless Our Home"
Both she and I take walks each night
But up and down the floor
To try and get the kids to sleep
We never walk no more
Down by the railroad track
Down by the railroad track
I wonder who is there tonight
Down by the railroad track
It seems to me the big events
That happened in my life
Like smoking my first cigarette
Proposing to my wife
All happened in the self-same place
For sure it's jinx to me
And still there's couples there each day
They call it heavenly
Down by the railroad track
Down by the railroad track
That's where I lost my liberty
Down by the railroad track
The other day our little girl
Said,"Momma tell me do
If good girls go to heaven
Do the bad girls go there too?"
"No, just good girls go to heaven, dear."
The mother softly sighed
"Then mother, where do the bad girls go?"
And Annabel replied
"Down by the railroad track
Down by the railroad track
Now run and play and don't you stay
Down by the railroad track."
