What you going to do : when they send your man to war
I'm going to drink muddy water : go sleep in a hollow log
Ain't got nobody : I'm all here by myself
Well these women don't care : but the men don't need me 
here
Well I'm going to the river : going to walk it up and 
down
If I don't find *fourteen* : I'm going to jump overboard 
and drown
If I could shine my light : like a headlight on some 
train
I would shine my light : in Corinna's brain
Well they tell me that southbound train : had a wreck 
last night
You little section foreman : ain't treating your railroad 
right
Well the girl I love : is the one I crave to see
Well she's living in Memphis : and the fool won't write 
to me
Now tell me woman : what have I said and done
You treat me : like my trouble have just begun
