Railroad Lady(Chords)

	        
     F 
     She's a railroad lady 
            C 
     Just a little bit shady 
     G7                       C 
     Spendin' her days on the train 
             F 
     She's a semi-good looker 
             C         
     But the fast rails they took her 
               G7                     F   G    C 
     Now she's tryin', just tryin' to get home again
 
 
      C          C7            F               C 
South Station in Boston to the freightyards of Austin 
                                             G7 
From the Florida sunshine to the New Orleans rain 
C            C7 
Now that the railpacks 
    F         C 
Has taken the best tracks 
                             G7        C 
She's tryin', just tryin' to get home again 
 
Chorus: 
     She's a railroad lady 
     Just a little bit shady 
     Spendin' her life on a train 
     Once a pullman car traveller 
     Now the brakeman won't have her 
     She's tryin', just tryin' to get home again 
 
Once a high ballin' loner he thought he could own her 
Bought her a fur and a big diamond ring 
She hocked 'em for cold cash 
Left town on the Wabash 
Never thinkin', never thinkin' of home way back then 
 
But the rails are now rusty 
The dinin' car's dusty 
Gold plated watches have taken their toll 
Yeah the railroads are dyin' 
And the lady she's cryin' 
On a bus to Kentucky and home that's her goal 
 
Chorus: 
     She's a railroad lady 
     Just a little bit shady 
     Spendin' her life on a train 
     She's a semi-good looker 
     But the fast rails they took her 
     Now she's tryin', just tryin' to get home again 
 
C        G7                  F    G    C      
Yes on a bus to Kentucky and home once again
