In the heat of the day, down in Mobile, Alabama
Workin' on the railroad with a steel-drivin' hammer
Tryin' to get some money, get some brand new shoes
Tryin to find a lady, chase away my blues
Hot and wasted, Lord, sweatin' in the sun
Cussed out by the foreman 'till my work is all done
Later in the evening, when the sun is sinking low
I'll be out there waitin' for the whistle to blow
Sittin' in the teepee, smokin' out on the track
Rollin' them bones 'til my foreman get back
Suddenly, I hear the breakman up and shout
There's a non-stop train comin' two miles out
Everybody jumpin' and a screaming around
Tryin to get the line an' get the teepee down
Railroad owner's 'bout to go insane
Tryin' to get the workers out the way of the train
Here come the engineer honk his horn
He got a train you got to let it roll on
Let it rock
All night long
Workin' on the railroad with a steel-drivin' hammer
Tryin' to get some money, get some brand new shoes
Tryin to find a lady, chase away my blues
Hot and wasted, Lord, sweatin' in the sun
Cussed out by the foreman 'till my work is all done
Later in the evening, when the sun is sinking low
I'll be out there waitin' for the whistle to blow
Sittin' in the teepee, smokin' out on the track
Rollin' them bones 'til my foreman get back
Suddenly, I hear the breakman up and shout
There's a non-stop train comin' two miles out
Everybody jumpin' and a screaming around
Tryin to get the line an' get the teepee down
Railroad owner's 'bout to go insane
Tryin' to get the workers out the way of the train
Here come the engineer honk his horn
He got a train you got to let it roll on
Let it rock
All night long
