  • By: jimmy buffett, jerry jeff walker
  • 1973
  • Shes a railroad lady
  • Just a little bit shady
  • Spendin her days on the trains
  • Shes a semi-good looker
  • But the fast rails they took er
  • Now shes tryin, just tryin to get home again
  • South station in boston to the freightyards of austin
  • From the florida sunshine to the new orleans rain
  • Now that the railpacks
  • Has taken the best tracks
  • Shes tryin, just tryin to get home again
  • Shes a railroad lady
  • Just a little bit shady
  • Spendin her life on a train
  • Once a pullman car traveller
  • Now the brakeman wont have er
  • Shes tryin, just tryin to get home again
  • Once a high ballin loner he thought he could own er
  • Bought her a fur and a big diamond ring
  • She hocked em for cold cash
  • Left town on the wabash
  • Never thinkin, never thinkin of home way back then
  • But the rails are now rusty
  • The dinin cars dusty
  • Gold plated watches have taken their toll
  • Yeah the railroads are dyin
  • And the lady shes cryin
  • On a bus to kentucky and home thats her goal
  • Shes a railroad lady
  • Just a little bit shady
  • Spendin her life on a train
  • Shes a semi-good looker
  • But the fast rails they took er
  • Now shes tryin, just tryin to get home again
  • Coda:
  • Yes on a bus to kentucky and home once again
