Dm
Hear that old train whistle

Dm
Howling in the night

Dm
If that flyer's southbound

Dm
Things will be all right

    A7                                          A7
I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now-ow-oooow

Dm
Don't nobody tell me

Dm
Baby’s been untrue

Dm
If she's been unfaithful

  Dm
I don't know what I'll do

    A7                                          A7

Never thought that I could miss her so

I never thought I could, but now I know

Dm
The sound of the old train whistle

Dm
Makes me want to cry

  Dm
Reminds me of that lonely feeling

Dm
When I said goodbye
