I've been waitin' at this train depot
trying' to find a reson why I shouldn't go
My bags are done packed so I can't back down,
don't try to stop 'cause I'm railway bound.
Get off your knees,
there ain't nothin' you can do.
I'm gonna ride these tracks 'til it
shakes these blues away.
Shakin' these blues away-
I don't care if it takes all night,
I'm gonna ride these tracks 'til it
shakes these blues away.
Shakin' these blues away-
I don't care if it takes all night,
I'm gonna ride that, I'm gonna ride that line.
River-bridge movin' at the speed of sound
conductor man say we're gonna stop
at the next town. I get off the train,
I gotta look new
Next time you see me I'll be
shakin' these blues away.
Shakin' these blues away-
I don't care if it takes all night,
I'm gonna ride that, I'm gonna ride that line.
Tupelo shadow cast in my view,
Delta show whore help me sing my blues.
Number 89's on time,
ready to take me to the Texas line.
Shakin' these blues away-
I don't care if it takes all night
I'm gonna ride that, I'm gonna ride that line
