Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill
Never worked and he never will
Im gonna ride, Railroad Bill.
Well, Railroad Bill was a mighty mean man
Shot the light out of the brakemans hand
Im gonna ride, that bad Railroad Bill.
Well Miss McMillan, she whooped and she squawked
Thats my husband for I heard him fall
Im gonna ride, that bad Railroad Bill.
Well I went down on Number One
Railroad Bill had just begun
Im gonna ride, Railroad Bill.
Well I came back on Number Two
Railroad Bill had just got through
Im gonna ride, Railroad Bill.
Well I went down on Number Four
Someone let fly with a forty-four
Im gonna ride, Railroad Bill.
Got a thirty-eight special in a forty-five frame
I aint gonna miss cause Ive got dead aim
Im gonna ride, that bad Railroad Bill.
Well Railroad Bill, rolling down a hill
Lighting cigars with a ten-dollar bill
Im gonna ride, that bad Railroad Bill.
Well, Railroad Bill says, Before I die,
Im gonna build a railroad for the bums to ride
Im gonna ride, that bad Railroad Bill.
