The bell has tolled, my baby caught that train 'n gone

The barrel-house told me, my baby caught that train 'n gone

It was all my fault, I musta' did somebody wrong.

Everything that happens, you know I am to blame.

Everything that happens, you know I am to blame.

I'm gonna find myself a doctor, perhaps my luck will change.

Ah, my mamma she told me, these days will surely come.

I wouldn't listen to her, had to have my fun.

The barrel-house told me, my baby caught that train 'n gone.

But it's all my fault, I musta' done somebody wrong, oh yeah.

The barrel-house told me, my baby caught that train 'n gone

The barrel-house told me, my baby caught that train 'n gone

It was all my fault, I musta' did somebody wrong. Oh play the blues...
