I was walking out this morning with rambling on my mind
I am going to catch that special train for lonesome pine
You can hear the whistle blowing as she's coming down the line
That's the train I catch this morning just to ease my troubling mind
Yodel
Take me back to Texas back to my old home
Oh I'm weeping like a willow and I'm mourning like a dove
There's a girl out in Texas that I know I really love
Oh I'm going back to Texas where the lonesome coyotes whine
Where the longhorn cattle are lowing round that cabin home of mine
Oh give me back my rifle oh give me back my gun
Give me back my home in Texas and my rambling days are done
I am going to catch that special train for lonesome pine
You can hear the whistle blowing as she's coming down the line
That's the train I catch this morning just to ease my troubling mind
Yodel
Take me back to Texas back to my old home
Oh I'm weeping like a willow and I'm mourning like a dove
There's a girl out in Texas that I know I really love
Oh I'm going back to Texas where the lonesome coyotes whine
Where the longhorn cattle are lowing round that cabin home of mine
Oh give me back my rifle oh give me back my gun
Give me back my home in Texas and my rambling days are done
