Bluegrass Songs - Born to ride

Born to ride

Coming down from Tennessee, riding on the line
Studying about that gal of mine, couldn't keep from crying

    Honey baby I'm bound to ride
    Don't you want to go

Going to Atlanta, just to look around
Things don't sult me, I'll hunt another town

  * Refrain

Riding on a streetcar, looking o'er the town
Eating salty crackers, ten cents a pownd

  * Refrain

Working on a railroad, saving all I can
Looking for that woman that ain't got no man

  * Refrain

If die a railroad man, bury me under the ties
So I can see old number nine as she goes rolling by

  * Refrain

See that train a-coming, coming round the bend
Goodbye, my little darling, I'm on my way again

  * Refrain
