Had as station wagon and a hundred dollars

Thinking about the girl I'd lost a year before
I hadn't seen her for some time

Thought I might go on by

and you closed that door

You need a shovel for the coal

Verse 2
Gm
Well, every time I talk to you
Eb
I hear your jealous lines
F
I feel like I've been left abandoned

on some old railway side
And every time I hear your voice
Eb
my water just gets cold
F
My stoker will not stoke
Gm
and my boiler will not boil

I wish some switch man would come out
Gm
of the fog and change my track
