Through this railroad earth, for whatever it's worth.
Singing Songs and staying high.
And you know I'll be where my heart feels free.
And my thoughts are free to fly.
chorus
(1) Oh Mama, please don't ask me why.
(2) Oh Mama, please don't make me lie.
(3) Oh Mama, ain't it good to be alive.
(1,2) I need my freedom, need my open sky.
(3) With your mountain top and feeling high.
And its socks and shirt on a bed of dirt.
The midnight moon up high.
And you know I've been where the midnight wind,
Makes your soul and spirit cry.
Through this railroad earth, for whatever its worth,
Getting along and getting by.
And you know I'll miss every single kiss.
As the years go rolling by.
