Verse 1:
I took my woman down to the local depot
From there to anywhere if you want to you can go
I said now pretty mamma I've had myself enough
Of your fussing and your fighting and it's sure gonna get rough

Chorus:
I got the train sittin' waitin'
Leaving right on time
So if you want to go, better get aboard
But you be the one to make up your mind

Verse 2:
I've tried to love you woman every way I know how
But you keep on a naggin' and I've had it starting now
If you don't like the way you're living you know what you can do
Said the trains sitting there it's a big black choo-choo

Chorus
I got the train sittin' waitin'
Leaving right on time
So if you want to go, get yourself aboard
But you be the one to make up your mind

Verse 3:
Well, I looked up at the schedule and it said nine thirteen
The central is a leaving all the lights are turning green
The whistle is a blowin' here's your ticket and your pass
The door is open wide so don't let your coat tail drag

Chorus.
