Two-ten Six-eighteen

Jimmie Rodgers

I've been away so long, fought a war that's come and gone

Doesn't anybody know my name?

My sister's up and wed, my mama has took to bed

Now my old dog Red's gone lame



Please tell me if you can what time do the trains roll in?

Two-ten, six-eighteen

Ten-forty- four





The house is falling down, no use in hangin' 'round

Doesn't anybody know my name?

The girl I left behind, she's gone with a friend of mine

I don't have to read a sign to know things ain't the same



Please tell me if you can what time do the trains roll in?

Two-ten, six-eighteen

Ten-forty-four





Ya can't go far away on just a soldier's pay

Doesn't anybody know my name?

Use'ta be when I could see, everybody wanted me

Now nobody comes to see a blind man catch a train



Please tell me if you can what time do the trains roll in?

Two-ten, six-eighteen

Ten-forty-four
