Blue light flashing down the railroad track
Blue smoke boiling from the ole smoke stack
Oh Blue Train don't leave me behind

Blue steam flying from the blue choo choo
Wheels a whining a lonesome blues
Oh Blue Train on the heartbreak railroad line too doo too too too

My baby said she loved me true
Then she ran off with someone new
Oh Blue Train don't leave me behind
Yeah let me ride till I lose these doggone awful blues
Oh Blue Train on the heartbreak railroad line too doo too too too

Blue Train you're coming in on time
Blue train you're coming in on time
Cause I just lost that lovey of a-mine
Blue Train of the heartbreak railroad line too doo too too too
