Ol' Reuben made a train & he put it on a track.
He ran it to the Lord knows where.
Oh Lordy me, oh Lordy my, he ran it to the Lord knows where.
Should-a been in town when Reuben's train came down.
You could hear that whistle blow 100 miles.
Oh Lordy me, oh Lordy my, you could hear the whistle blow 100 miles.
Last night I lay in jail had no money to go my bail.
Lord how it sleeted & it snowed!
Oh Lordy me, oh Lordy my, Lord how it sleeted & it snowed!
I've been to the East, I've been to the West,
I'm going where the chilly winds don't blow.
Oh Lordy me, oh Lordy my, I'm going where the chilly winds don't blow.
Oh the train that I ride is 100 coaches long.
You can hear the whistle blow 100 miles.
Oh Lordy me, oh Lordy my, you can hear the whistle blow 100 miles.
I got myself a blade, laid Reuben in the shade,
I'm startin' me a graveyard of my own.
Oh Lordy me, oh Lordy my, startin' me a graveyard of my own.
