SINGER: Jimmie Rodgers

SONG:Two-ten Six-eighteen

I've been away so long, fought a war that's come and gone
doesn't anybody know my name?
my sister's up and wed, my mama has took to bed
now my old dog red's gone lame
<all> please tell me if you can what time do the trains roll in?
<bass> two-ten, six-eighteen
<primarily female backups> ten-forty- four
<train whistle>
The house is falling down, no use in hangin' 'round
doesn't anybody know my name?
the girl i left behind, she's gone with a friend of mine
i don't have to read a sign to know things ain't the same
<all> please tell me if you can what time do the trains roll in?
<bass> two-ten, six-eighteen
<primarily female backups> ten-forty-four
<train whistle>
Ya can't go far away on just a soldier's pay
doesn't anybody know my name?
use'ta be when i could see, everybody wanted me
now nobody comes to see a blind man catch a train
<all> please tell me if you can what time do the trains roll in?
<bass> two-ten, six-eighteen
<all>ten-forty-four
