Country Boy Down In New Orleans
Give me the good old boxcar
Gee but the life is grand
When I hear that whistle blow
I'll be home again

My love is like a candle
Glows off and on
When I hear that whistle blow
I'll be home again

The ones in loving
Always seem to care
My heart is throbbing
For your love I wouldn't share

My heart is like a candle
It glows off and on
Every time that whistle blow
I'll be in love again

Give me the good old boxcar
Gee but the life is grand
When I hear that whistle blow
I'll be home again

Life is like a problem
Whether we know it's true
Tell me dear but what I'll do
I'll keep on loving you

Give me the good old boxcar
Gee but the life is grand
When I hear that whistle blow
I'll be at home again

When I give that whistle
I know that it's true
Don't tell me dear I'll love again
What am I going to do?
