Now here goes the Sunny Land

Runnin` on this Frisco line

Here goes this Sunny Land

Runnin` on this Frisco line

Now, that`s the same train come through Jackson

You know, an stold that little woman of mine



Lord, e`rytime

I hear that lonesome Sunny Land, blow

E`ry time

I hear that lonesome Sunny Land, blow

Now you know, it make me feel lonesome?

`What man?`

Lord, just because I want to go

`I comin`, Sonny Boy.`



I heared the engineerman blew his whistle

Now, an the fireman rung his bell

I heard the engineerman, blew his whistle

Now and the fireman rung his bell

Lord, said I hated to tell my baby

`What man?`

`Baby, you cry you a well`

`Let`s just stay here, Mr. Sonny Boy, just stay here.`



Now that`s all right, but I know

My baby ain`t going to stay, alway

But that`s all right, I know

My baby ain`t going to stay, always

Now, she will get be-afraid, now an` thinkin`

`What man?`

Yank, an comin` runnin` back home, someday

`I can now.`



`Boy, if I am blue, now I blow wit` it.`



(harmonica begins - Sonny Boy)



Yank: `Beat it out, boy`.



(harmonica continues)



Now, it was a low down fireman

Man, an really dirty engineer

It was a low down fireman

Lord, an a dirty engineer

`Yes, run off`.`

Well, they sure did treated me bad

`Why?`

They took my baby away from here.
