Lightnin’ Hopkins - Santa Fe Blues Lyrics

Ain't gonna tell nobody
Santa Fe did to me
I ain't gonna tell nobody
What the Santa Fe did to me
You know, it taken away my lover
Sin got my old time, used to be

You know, I was standin' at the station
When my baby got on board
I was standin' at the station
When my baby got on board

Sound like I could here her tellin'
"I'm gone this time
Lightnin', I won't be back no more"

You know, that lil' mean old Santa Fe
Taken my baby away from me
You know, that lil' mean old Santa Fe
Taken my baby away from me
Yeah, she left early one mornin'
She left on the Santa Fe

You know that old Santa Fe
Big, bad luck to me
You know that old Santa Fe
Big, bad luck to me
You know, it taken away my lover
Sin got my old time, used to be
