Oh you've done me wrong but it wont be long Till my blues are out of sight For that big green engine's ready to go Rollin' out of town tonight See the steam and hear the whistle scream And we;re off on the northern line Flyin' thrity-eight, never known to be late Rock and roll along on time Oh! Sling that coal and hear that engine roll Keep the signals clear tonight Women, wine and song I've had you too long Gonna loose my blues tonight I've been out of town and I've been foolin' around And spent some time in jail Gonna start again, don't know where or when But tonight I'm changing my trail It's good to see the bushland free 'Neath the moon and stars so bright And this old green rattler seems to know I'm losin' my blues tonight Gonna loose my blues tonight Gonna loose my blues tonight
