Marlborough Street Blues

Well, a freight train come by here, it’s 23 boxcar long
Freight train roll by here, 'twas 23 boxcar long
Sometime late last night, should be on a train and gone
Oh, Lord, I don’t know one woman in this town
Oh, I don’t know one woman in this town
There’s plenty of jobs around, but it’s only cleaning cars
Plenty of jobs around, but it’s only washing cars
Forty-two a week, you roll your own, don’t make the bars
Lord, Lord, Lord, I don’t know one woman in this town
Oh, I don’t know one woman in this town
Oh, there’s a crack under the door
And the snow drifts through inside
But no letters and no money
From all my friends outside
Oh, when you’re with a girl, freight train don’t sound so bad
Oh, when you’re with a girl, freight train don’t sound so bad
But when you’re all alone, oh the blues get low and sad
Oh, Lord, Lord, I don’t know one woman in this town
Oh, I don’t know one woman in this town
Oh, there’s a crack under the door
And the snow drifts through inside
But no letters and no money
From all my friends outside
Oh, when you’re with a girl, freight train don’t sound so bad
Oh, when you’re with a girl, freight train don’t sound so bad
But when you’re all alone, oh the blues get low and sad
Oh, Lord, I don’t know one woman in this town
Oh, I don’t know one woman in this town
