- Railroad Bill LyricsRailroad Bill, Railroad Bill
He never worked, and he never will
And it's ride, ride, ride
Railroad Bill's a mighty mean man
Shot the light out of the poor brakeman's hand
Railroad Bill, up on a hill
Lightin' a seegar with a ten-dollar bill
Railroad Bill took my wife
If I didn't like it, gonna take my life
Goin' on a mountain, goin' out west
Thirty-eight special stickin' out of my vest
Buy me a pistol just as long as my arm
Shoot everybody ever done me harm
Got a thirty-special in a forty-five frame
I can't miss cause I got dead aim
Railroad Bill, he ain't so bad
Whupped his mama, shot his old dad
Early one morning, standing in the rain
Round the bend come a long freight train
Railroad Bill a-comin' home soon
Killed McMillan by the light of the moon
McMillan had a special train
When they got there they was prayin'
Kill me a chicken, send me the wing
They think I'm workin', Lord, I ain't doin' a thing
Kill me a chicken, send me the head
Think I'm workin', Lord, I'm layin' in bed
Gonna drink my whiskey, drink it in the wind
The doctor said it'd kill me but he didn't say when
He never worked, and he never will
And it's ride, ride, ride
Railroad Bill's a mighty mean man
Shot the light out of the poor brakeman's hand
Railroad Bill, up on a hill
Lightin' a seegar with a ten-dollar bill
Railroad Bill took my wife
If I didn't like it, gonna take my life
Goin' on a mountain, goin' out west
Thirty-eight special stickin' out of my vest
Buy me a pistol just as long as my arm
Shoot everybody ever done me harm
Got a thirty-special in a forty-five frame
I can't miss cause I got dead aim
Railroad Bill, he ain't so bad
Early one morning, standing in the rain
Round the bend come a long freight train
Railroad Bill a-comin' home soon
Killed McMillan by the light of the moon
McMillan had a special train
When they got there they was prayin'
Kill me a chicken, send me the wing
They think I'm workin', Lord, I ain't doin' a thing
Kill me a chicken, send me the head
Think I'm workin', Lord, I'm layin' in bed
Gonna drink my whiskey, drink it in the wind
The doctor said it'd kill me but he didn't say when
