Chorus
I’ve got the feelin’ bad, I’ve got the feelin’ bad
I’ve got the feelin’ called the Railroad Blues
He didn’t tell me why, he didn’t say goodbye
Got everything I had except my shoes
He left me flat just where I’m at
An’ blew, that bird has flew
Now all I do is think, can’t even sleep a wink
A-thinkin’ of the things he done for me
An’ every night it’s cold, or else I’m getting old
An’ all he left me was a memory
Oh! he was mine till the train pulled in
With the blues, them Railroad Blues
