I got a mind to ramble
I got a mind to leave this town
I got a mind to ramble
I got a mind to leave this town
Well if i don't go to memphis
I'll be alabama-bound
I hate to hear that
I hate to hear that whistle blow
I hate to hear that
I hate to hear that Lonesome Train Whistle blow
Every time i hear it blow, i feel just like writing to you
Well hello baby, i had to call you on the telephone
Said hello pretty mama, i had to call you on the telephone
Well i am here today, but tomorrow i might be gone
Said yeah
Well alright
Alright
I said goodbye baby
Darling if you really want to call back home
I said goodbye pretty mama
Darling if you really want to call back home
I got a new woman
She gonna move into your happy home
I got a mind to ramble
I got a mind to leave this town
I got a mind to ramble
I got a mind to leave this town
Well if i don't go to memphis
I'll be alabama-bound
