I know you're travelling
But I don't know where
I'd leave here with you
But I just can't pay my fare
Take me to some better place to be
Oh, now tell me baby don't you want a man like me?

I came in the summer
With the bright lights on my mind
I tried to make it
But I soon got left behind
If you deal me one good hand to play
Then I swear I'll keep your secret if your man comes back some day

Hey now, baby
Won't you take me on your train?
We leave tomorrow
And we won't come back again
If the sun don't shine on our back door
Then you can leave me if you want to if you just let me know what for
