219 Train

219 Done took my baby away
219 Done took my baby away
Maybe the 217 train
Will bring him back to me someday
I went down to the station, and watched the train roll on by
I went down to the station, and watched the train roll on by
Saw my man's face at the window
Oh, I'm gonna hang my head down and cry
I walked home without him, big clouds were hanging low
I walked home without him, big clouds were hanging low

Now I raise my head
Every time I hear that ol' train whistle blow
When a man gets the blues, he grabs train and he rides
When a man gets the blues, he grabs train and he rides
When a woman gets the blues
She just hangs her head down and cries
