The St. Louis Train Kept Passing By Lyrics

The boats at the landin', the trains at the station blowin'.
The boats at the landin', the trains at the station blowin'.
I got my ticket in my hand, but I don't know where I'm goin'.

I went to the depot, I looked up at the board.
I went to the depot, I looked up at the board.
I ask the ticket agent, is the St. Louis train on the board?

He said little boy, little girl don't weep and cry.
He said little boy, little girl don't weep and cry.Lonnie Johnson - The St. Louis Train Kept Passing By - http://motolyrics.com/lonnie-johnson/the-st-louis-train-kept-passing-by-lyrics.html
There's a St. Louis train on this board, but it keeps on easing by.

I took my suitcase, and went up that lonesome hill.
I took my suitcase, and went up that lonesome hill.
I heard that St. Louis train comin' through by Jacksonville.

Lord, I can't stay here no more.
Lord, I can't stay here no more.
I hear that St. Louis bound train blowin', I really got to go.
