The Memphis Train - Rufus Thomas

Train number one is gone

Train number two is gone

Train number three is been gone

Now how long must I wait for you?

All right

Time I laid my handkerchief on the floor

I’m getting ready to crawl

I’m getting down on my knees

I’m getting ready to crawl

I said, ooh, wee, the Memphis train

Hey, now, now, now

Ooh, wee, the Memphis train

Train number one is gone

Train number two is gone

Train number three is been gone

Now how long must I wait for you, all right

Shucks

Ooh, wee, the Memphis train

Hey, now, now, now

Ooh, wee, it’s a Memphis train

Yeah, oh, got me going now

Oh, it’s coming

It’s coming down the track

It ain’t, uh, it ain’t, uh It ain’t coming back, no, it ain’t

It’s going, going down the track

Yeah, now just keep moving on It’s got me moving

It’s got me moving

Got me coming, got me working

Got me moving now

Got me cooking now

Got me grooving

Got me moving

Keep on down the track
