LYRICS

Hear that old train whistle

Howling in the night

If that flyer's southbound

Things will be alright

I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now

I'm gonna get back home somehow

Don't nobody tell me

Baby's been untrue

If she's been unfaithful

I don't know what I'll do

I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now

I'm gonna get back home somehow

Never thought that I could miss her so

I never thought I could but now I know

Well, the sound of the old train whistle

Makes me want to cry

Reminds me of that lonely feeling

When I said goodbye

I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now

I'm gonna get back home somehow

Never thought that I could miss her so

Never thought I could but now I know

The sound of the old train whistle

Makes me want to cry

Reminds me of that lonely feeling

When I said goodbye

I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now

I'm gonna get back home somehow
