I wonder why that southbound train don't run 
Oh, you don't need no tellin', little girl, you know what you've done 
You made me love you, now your man done come 
You made me love you, now your man done come 
I right know you're happy, little girl, but Bill's just a lonely boy

Someday baby, your trouble may be like mine

Standin' at the station, Lord, I'll waitin' for a train
