Am Dm
I've been workin' so hard, baby,
Am
tryin' to get to you.
Dm G
I'm gonna be there soon because

In the heat of the day many miles away
F
when the sun is beating down upon the main street
G
I'll be waiting here at the station,
Am G F
I gotta move down the line.
C
They'll be dancin' and singin' and doin' their thing
F
and they'll be rockin' and rollin' until the day is done.
G
You know I got to make the deadline.

(Same Pattern)
The Mardi Gras will be blowing strong
and the people dancing all across the city.
I'm leaving here tonight,
I gotta move down the line.
I'm gonna catch a ride on the nine-o-five,
I'm gonna ride the rail until we reach the morning,
maybe three or four hundred miles.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
Ab Eb Bb Am
If I don't get to the border then I'll write.
Am Dm Am G C F G Am G F C
When the wind is blowing softly
through the streets of a little town and the music's playin
you're waiting somewhere over the horizon.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I don't get to the border then I'll write.
