Southern Streamline
Mama I'm on fire
Old flame, sweet desire
Coming on the midnight
Coming on the midnight train
Rolling steel and thunder
Bring my baby back again
Roll on down the line
Big wheels rolling right on time
Hear that whistle blowing
Hear that engine roar and whine
Take care of my baby
Riding on that southern streamline
Well I got a little letter this morning
Just about the break of day
Bluebird ringing my doorbell
Rolling my blues away
Said honey baby we'll go stepping
Long about Saturday night
So head it down to the station
And everything will be alright
Honey what's that sound?
Big wheels rolling homeward bound
See that smokestack sparking
Lighting up the purple sky
Take care of my baby
Riding on that southern streamline
Ride it boy, ride it
Well I got a little letter this morning
Just about a break of day
Bluebird ringing my doorbell
Rolling my blues away
Said honey babe we'll go stepping
Long about Saturday night
So head it down to the station
And everything will be alright
Mama I'm on fire
Old flame, sweet desire
Coming on the midnight
Honey let your little light shine
Rolling steel and thunder
Riding on that southern streamline
Take care of my baby
Riding on that southern streamline
