That Train Is Gone Lyrics

Chuck Willis That Train Is Gone

Well, when I got home this mornin',
A letter was waiting for me.
And it read, "I'm leavin' you, darlin',
My train leaves town at three."
And that train has gone.
Oh, yes, that train has gone.
I belive that train has gone.
That's the train my baby was on.

I ran all way to the station,
Up to the gate.
The conductor grabbed me by my hand,
Said, "Son, it's too late.
The train just left."
It left me all by myself.
Oh, yes, that train has gone.
That's the train my baby was on.

I never will forget that train whistle,
As I stood there in the rain.
And it sound as if it was tellin' me,
You are the one to blame.

I should have tol' her I love her,
But I thought she already knew.
I don't know where to write her,
What am I goin' to do?
And that train has gone.
Oh, yes, that train has gone.
I belive that train has gone.
That's the train my baby was on.
