I'm walking down this track, 
I've got tears in my eyes, 
Trying to read a letter from my home. 
If this train runs me right 
I'll be home tomorrow night. 
I'm nine hundred miles from my home. 
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow. 

I'll pawn you my watch 
And I'll pawn you my chain; 
Pawn you my gold diamond ring. 
If this train runs me right 
I'll be home tomorrow night. 
I'm nine hundred miles from my home. 
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow. 

The rain I ride on 
Is a thousand coaches long. 
You can hear that whistle blow a hundred miles. 
If this train runs me right 
I'll be home tomorrow night. 
I'm nine hundred miles from my home. 
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow. 

If my woman says so 
I will railroad no more 
I'll sidetrack my wheeler and go home. 
If this train runs me right 
I'll be home tomorrow night. 
I'm nine hundred miles from my home. 
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow.
