Danville Girl Lyrics

Danville Girl

My pocket book was empty,
My heart was full of pain.
Ten thousand miles away from home
Bumming a railroad train.

I was standing on the platform
Smoking a cheap cigar
Listening for that next freight train
To carry an empty car.

Well I got off at Danville
Got stuck on a Danville girl
You bet your life she's out of sight
She wore those Danville curls.

She took me in her kitchen
She treated me nice and kindUnknown - Danville Girl - http://motolyrics.com/unknown/danville-girl-lyrics.html
She got me in the notion
Of bumming my last time.

She wore her hair on the back of her head
Like high-toned people do,
But the very next train come down that line
I bid that girl adieu.

I pulled my cap down over my eyes
Walked down to the railroad track
Then I caught a westhound freight;
Never did look back.
