作曲：Gordon Lightfoot

Well I got my mail late last night

A letter from a girl who found the time

to write

To her lonesome boy somewheres in the

night

She sent me a railroad ticket too

To take me to her lovin' arms

And the big steel rail gonna carry me

home to the one I love

Well I bin out here many long days

I haven't found a place that I could call

my own

Not a two bit bed to lay my body on

I bin stood up I bin shook down

I bin dragged into the sand

And the big steel rail gonna carry me

home to the one I love

Well I bin up tight most every night

Walkin' along the streets of this old town

Not a friend around to tell my troubles to

My good old car she done broke down

'Cause i drove it into the ground

And the big steel rail gonna carry me

home to the one I love

Well I look over yonder across the plain

The big drive wheels are poundin' along

the ground

Gonna get on board and I'll be homeward

bound

Now I ain't had a home cooked meal

And Lord I need one now

And the big steel rail gonna carry me

home to the one I love

Now here I am with my hat in hand

Standin' on the broad highway will you

give a ride

To a lonesome boy who missed the train

last night

I went in town for one last round

And I gambled my ticket away

And the big steel rail won't carry me

home to the one I love
