Testo The Poor Girls Story - Eilen Jewell
Testo della canzone The Poor Girls Story (Eilen Jewell), tratta dall'album Down Hearted Blues
Come and gather all around me
Listen to my tale of woe
Got some good advice to give you
Lotta things you oughta know
Take a tip from one who traveled
Never start to ramble around
You're liable to get the wanderin' fever
Never wanna settle down
I met a little boy in Frisco
I asked him if he had a wife
Told him I was tired of ramblin'
I wanna settle down for life
Then I heard the whistle blowin'
I knew it was the Georgia train
I left him standin' by the railroad
I'll never see that man again
Wanderin' all around this country
Have to travel everywhere
Been on that old Ringline Railroad
Never paid a nickel fare
Been from Maine to California
Ended up in Mexico
I wouldn't try to save no money
Now I got nowhere to go
Listen to a poor girl's story
Listen to the things I say
I hear another train a comin'
And I'll soon be on my way
If you wanna do me a favor
Come and lay me down to die
But dig my grave beside the railroad
So I can hear the trains go by
