from stanton station - looking glass lyrics

Loading...

i used to work for the new jersey railroad
i got laid off ’cause the times weren’t good
my unemployment sixty-five dollars
sixty-five dollars don’t buy what it should

i have a-a weakness for 80-proof whiskey
lately, i’m drinking a bottle every day
messing my mind up
lord, it’s wrecking my body
but it helps make those long, lonely hours slip away

i used to be a railroad man
and i’m d-mn proud of it, too
i did more work in a working day
than any two men could do

foreman said i drink too much
and i guess it’s half-way true
i drink half as much as my daddy did
and twice as much as you

i used to have me a good looking woman
loved her and kept her
and called her my own

she started packing when i started drinking
now i’m drunk and i’m busty
and i’m angry all alone

i used to be a railroad man
and i’m d-mn proud of it, too
i did more work in a working day
than any two men could do

foreman said i drink too much
and at last i know it’s true
but i’m too far gone to change now
ain’t nothing i can do
