Railroad Boy - Joan Baez[00:00:00]
Written by:Traditional[00:00:04]
She went upstairs to make her bed[00:00:10]
And not one word to her mother said[00:00:16]
Her mother she went upstairs too[00:00:21]
Saying daughter oh daughter[00:00:26]
What's troubling' you[00:00:29]
Oh mother dear I cannot tell[00:00:34]
That railroad boy that I love so well[00:00:38]
He courted me my life away[00:00:43]
And now at home he will no longer stay[00:00:48]
There is a place in yonder town[00:00:56]
Where goes and he sits him down[00:01:01]
He takes that strange girl on his knee[00:01:06]
And he tells to her what he won't tell me[00:01:11]
Her father he came home from work[00:01:25]
Saying' where is my daughter[00:01:30]
She seems so hurt[00:01:33]
He went upstairs to give her hope[00:01:35]
An' he found her hanging' by a rope[00:01:40]
He took his knife and he cut her down[00:01:47]
And on her bosom these words he found[00:01:53]
Go dig my grave both wide and deep[00:02:00]
Put a marble stone at my head and feet[00:02:05]
And on my breast put a white snow dove[00:02:10]
To warn the world that I died of love[00:02:14]
