Eric Andersen – Dusty Boxcar Wall Lyrics

[Lyrics for Eric Andersen – Dusty Boxcar Wall]

Im going away my baby,
Im gonna leave you pretty gal
For a train passed by while you lay sleeping
Ill write you a letter on a dusty boxcar wall

I once had a love in old Kentucky
I once had a love in sunny Tennessee
But a New York gal brought me pain and sadness
Now Im here as lonely as I can be

City women bring you grief and sorrow

Country girls are as sweet as they can be
City women are as cold as they are shallow
But a country girls love is as deep as the deep blue sea

Oh when I die and go to heaven
Thatll be tha last train ride Ill ever see
Theyll put a silver spike upon my gravestone
And my casket beneath a weeping willow tree
