Went to the station : to get me a train Going to climb on board : and ride again Just climb aboard : and ride around I might get off : at Memphis town Shovel in the coal : see the wheels go around Everybody's going : down to Memphis town I said conductor : where the trains all going I want to go see : that gal of mine He answered me : with a railroad frown All trains going : to Memphis town I said what's doing : down old Memphis way The trains all going : there today The trainman said : there's a jubilee And Memphis is town : that's only place for me I said to the station man : where's my train He said I never knowed : you own the train I said you better answer : or I'll smack you down He said all trains going : to Memphis town Goodbye folks : I'm on my way See you : on some other day Got my ticket : here's my train Going down to Memphis : see my gal again
