I'd the Rock Island Blues waiting on the Rock Island Train

Rock Island Blues waiting on the Rock Island Train

Got a girl in Texas and I'm scared to call her name



Don't you wish your girl was long and tall like mine

Don't you wish your girl was long and tall like mine

Lord she ain't good-looking but I 'clare she takes her time



Baby, where you stay last night?

Baby baby, where you stay last night?

Lord you didn't come home till the moon was shining bright



I'm gon' wash my face in the Gulf of Mexico

I'm gon' wash my face in the Gulf of Mexico

I'm gon' eat my breakfast a thousand miles below



Wonder will my suitcase hold my clothes?

Wonder will my suitcase hold my clothes?

I ain't got so many but I got so fur to go



I ain't got no woman, I ain't got no lady friend

I ain't got no woman, ain't got no lady friend

I ain't got nobody t'say Furry where you been?
