Nobody says the things he says

Nobody moves like he moves

Nobody makes me feel this way

I'm going to marry that boy, oh lord

I'm going to marry that boy

Oh my mother said to me

Girl you better watch yourself

'cause a railroad man is an absent man

I'm going to marry that boy, oh lord

I'm going to marry that boy

We'll live in a little town

North of duluth

Where my grandmother

Lived in her youth

When he comes home at night

He'll call to me

My sweet darling girl

Come lay with me

And oh mother nothing compares

Nothing even comes close

To the way he comes up under me

I'm going to marry that boy, oh lord

I'm going to marry that boy

Marry him in his easter clothes

Marry me in white

Beneath a canopy

Of unearthly light

And our friends and family

Will all come to say

God bless this union

God bless this day

Soon his burdens will be mine

Soon this love will set us free

All my hope lies with him now

I'm going to marry that boy, oh lord

I'm going to marry that boy

I'm going to marry that boy, oh lord

I'm going to marry that boy
