Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
And I's feelin' near as faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
It rode us all the way into New Orlea

If you miss the train I'm on,
you will know that I am gone,
you can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
A hundred miles, a hundred miles,
a hundred miles, a hundred

Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall

She said we miss you son we love you come on home

Gather 'round, cats, and I'll tell you a story
About how to become an All American Boy
Buy you a gittar and put it in tune

Morning comes and she's sleeping beside me I'm not ashamed that she's lying there
Her lips are still warm from the love she just gave me
She's contented with sweet dreams we shared
