Well I'm standing 'round, 'round that station
Waiting for the daylight but it's not on time
You know that Louisiana railroad is a track I wanna ride
And there was two trains runnin' on that line
One train is my friend, the other's a friend of mine
You know it will be all right (be
all right), be just fine (be just fine)
If that woman took one train, left the other behind, yeah
Punched my ticket, a porter took my name
I couldn't pay him nothin' so he started to complain
Down that platform, down that track
I could not help but see that the sign was sayin' that
There was two trains runnin' on that line
One train is my friend, the other's a friend of mine
You know it will be all right (be
all right), be just fine (be just fine)
If that woman took one train, left the other behind, yeah
Hey, you know that Louisiana railroad, it never run on time
Well I lost my baby, Lord, it nearly drove me crazy
I lost my money, I nearly lost my mind
But there was two trains runnin' on that line
One train is my friend, the other's a friend of mine
You know it will be all right (be
all right), be just fine (be just fine)
If that woman took one train, left the other behind, yeah
