Southbound Train

Song lyrics: Southbound Train by Max Creek

Doctor, doctor, please tell me
Am I alright at the top
When’s this hard luck gonna let go
When’s all these blues gonna stop

That southbound train brings a tear to my eye
But is it sadness or joy
Leaving you is the best thing I’ll ever do
No longer will I be your toy

I’ll go back to my fat ol’ mama
Where the sun shines warm and bright
I’ll go back to my hometown preacher
And tell him that I’ve seen the light

That southbound train brings a tear to my eye
But is it sadness or joy
Leaving you is the best thing I’ll ever do
No longer will I be your toy

If you don’t want me to leave you
Better tighten up your home
Because if you don’t, I’ll be travelin’
Soon as those chilly winds do blow

That southbound train brings a tear to my eye
But is it sadness or joy
Leaving you is the best thing I’ll ever do
No longer will I be your toy

That southbound train brings a tear to my eye
But is it sadness or joy
Leaving you is the best thing I’ll ever do
No longer will I be your toy

No longer will I be your toy

No longer will I be your toy
