Schwa Lyrics

Bound to Ride

Lyricist: Stanley Brothers
Vocalist: Cliff Starbuck

Coming down from Tennessee riding on the line
Thinkin' 'bout the girl of mine couln't keep from crying

Honey babe I'm bound to ride
Don't you want to go

Riding on a sreetcar looking o'er the town
Eating saltine crackers ten cents a pound

Working on a railroad saving all I can
Looking for that woman ain't got no man

If I die a railroad man bury me under the ties
So I can see old number nine as she goes rolling by

See that train a coming coming round the bend
Goodbye my little darling I'm on my way again
