I had a dream last night
I thought my good gal had gone
I woke up this morning
She really had done me wrong
I know it's not fair but
My good gal has done caught air.

Well, I'm goin' away, leavin' today
I'm gonna bring my baby back
If that eight wheel driver
Don't jump the railroad track
I'll take her from that man
Bring her home if I can.

--- Instrumental ---

It's true my baby's gone
I know it won't be long
We'll both be on that train
My baby's comin' home again
She's been travelin' around
But now she has thrown him down.

--- Instrumental ---

I'm goin' away leavin' today
I'm gonna bring my baby back
If that eight wheel driver
Don't jump the railroad track
I'll take her from that man
Bring her home if I can...
