Brakeman's Blues Lyrics

(Jimmie Rodgers)

Portland Maine is just the same as sunny Tennessee
Portland Maine is just the same as sunny Tennessee
Any old place I hang my hat is home sweet home to me.

I went to the depot and looked up on the board
I went to the depot and looked up on the board
It says it's good times here but it's better on down the road.

I'll eat my breakfast here get my dinner in New Orleans
I'll eat my breakfast here get my dinner in New Orleans
I'm gonna get me a mama Lord I ain't never seen.

Where was you mama when the train left the shed
Where was you mama when the train left the shed
Standing in my front door wishing you've gone I was dead...
