Steel Rail Blues Video (MV)

Well I got my mail late last night a letter from a girl who found the time to write

To her lonesome boy somewher's in the night

She sent me a railroad ticket too to take me to her lovin' arms

And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love



Well I been up tight most every night walkin' around the streets of this old town

Not a friend around to tell my troubles to

My good old car she done broke down cause I drove it into the ground

And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love

Well I look over yonder across that plain

The big drive wheels a poundin' along the ground

Gonna get on board and I'll be homeward bound

Now I ain't had a home cooked meal and Lord I need one now

And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love



Well here I am with my hat in my hand

Standin' on the broad highway will you give a ride

To a lonesome boy who missed the train last night

I went in town for one last round I gambled my ticket away

And the big steel rail won't carry me home to the one I love
