Railroad Bill

by Billy Bragg

on Shine a Light: Field Recordings from the Great American Railroad (2016)

Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill
He never worked and he never will
I'm gonna ride, Railroad Bill
I'm gonna ride, Railroad Bill

Railraod was a mighty mean man
He shot the lantern out the lamp man's hand
I wanna ride with Railroad Bill
I wanna ride with Railroad Bill

Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill
He never worked and he never will
I wanna ride, Railroad Bill
I'm gonna ride, Railroad Bill

Railroad Bill, he took my wife
If I'd had spoken, he'd had taken my life
Now I'm gonna ride, my Railroad Bill
Wanna ride, my Railroad Bill

Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill
He never worked and he never will
I'm gonna ride, Railroad Bill
Wanna ride, Railroad Bill

Railroad Bill, comin' down the hill
I'm gonna ride, my Railroad Bill
Wanna ride, my Railroad Bill

Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill
He never worked and he never will
I'm gonna ride, Railroad Bill
Wanna ride, Railroad Bill

I'm gonna ride, Railroad Bill
I'm gonna ride, Railroad Bill
