oh you've done me wrong but it wont be long
Till my blues are out of sight
For that big green engine's ready to go
Rollin' out of town tonight
See the steam and hear the whistle scream
And we;re off on the northern line
Flyin' thrity-eight, never known to be late
Rock and roll along on time
Oh! Sling that coal and hear that engine roll
Keep the signals clear tonight
Women, wine and song I've had you too long
Gonna loose my blues tonight
I've been out of town and I've been foolin' around
and spent some time in jail
Gonna start again, dont know where or when
But tonight I'm changing my trail
It's good to see the bushland free
'Neath the moon and stars so bright
And this old green rattler seems to know
I'm losin' my blues tonight
Gonna loose my blues tonight
Gonna loose my blues tonight
