Railroad, she left me standing on the line
Railroad, she´s really leaving me this time
Leaving on the midnight train
Leaving, never gonna come back again

I´m living alone, a place of my own
A bed, a chair and one back door
Something went wrong with the words to my song
And now she ain´t around no more
Something she said as she lay on my bed
Six or seven hours ago
I guess I was wrong
I really didn´t think she would go

Railroad, she left me standing on the line
Railroad, she´s really leaving me this time
Leaving on the midnight train
Leaving, never gonna come back again

Her face was always smiling, guess she was always laughing at me
I said her face was always smiling, guess she was always laughing at me

If I´d realised I´d be less surprised to find
That she was laughing at me
