lyrics

Ruben had a train he put it on a track
And rode it to the lord knows where
And it’s “Oh me! Oh my!”
You should’ve been in town when Ruben’s train went down
You could hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
I’ve been to the east I have been to the west
I’m going where the chilly wind don’t blow
And it’s “Oh me, oh my”
Last night I lay in jail no one to pay my bail
Lord how it sleeted and it hailed

Some mean old hack drove Ruben off his track
He’s making him a junkyard of his own
And it’s “OH ME! OH MY!”
