I've been here from kentucky
Have a guitar but have no money
That don't mean that I've been blue
But listen here, 'cause I'm telling you

Meet me at the railroad when I'm all alone
See me at the station when I'm on my own

I've been here from kentucky
Have a guitar but have no money
That don't mean that I've been blue
But listen here, 'cause I'm telling you

Meet me at the railroad when I'm all alone
See me at the station when I'm on my own
Get me out of here, get me out of here
Take a fast train, don't you dare leave me
Oh, No, Oh, No

I've been here from kentucky
Have a guitar but have no money
That don't mean that I've been blue
But listen here, 'cause I'm telling you
