[Verse 1]
Here [Am]we go. I'm blow through
[G]it.[Am][Bm][G]
[Am][G]
The last time that I saw her
She was [Am]waving me [Bm]away[Am][G]
I said I'd write her letters,
and I'd [Am]send her all my pay
And she could [Bm]sign for
Western
[Am]Union on the 1st of
May [G]15
But I [Bm]didn't write no letters,
I [G]spent a hundred dollar bills
And the [Am]neon lights on
Broadway, just to [D]get my damn thrill
[G]But I've got my ticket and I'm leavin'
on the old train when she blows
To my home in
Louisiana, where the [C]old
Red
[D]River [G]flows
The neon lights on
Broadway, they make the [Am]city bright and gay
[G]They're rockin' and rollin'
and twistin' at the
[Am]Peppermint
Lounge all [G]day
But I've got my ticket and I'm leavin'
on the [Am]old train when [G]she blow
to my home in
Louisiana
where the [C]old
Red
[D]River [G]flows
and [Bm]twilight in the evening
yodel -a -hee, yodel -a -hee, [G]yodel -a -hee
To my home in
Louisiana, where the [C]old
Red
[D]River [G]flows[F][Am][G][Bdim][G][Am]
[G]
And I'm dreaming tonight of
Dixie
Cotton [Am]fields and whippoor[G]will
Where I spent my childhood
Among the [Am]rocks and among the [G]rills
I got my ticket now I'm leaving
On the [Am]old train when she [G]blows
To my home in
Louisiana
Oh, where the [C]old
Red
[D]River [G]flows
Oh, where the [C]old
Red
[D]River [G]flows
Oh, where the [C]old
Red
[D]River flows
