Turtle Dove Blues
 

I weep like a willow, moan like a dove (3)
Says life ain't worth livin' if you ain't with the one you love

If I had wings like Norah's [sic] turtle dove (3)
I would rise and fly, light on the one I love

It's a low-down fireman, mistreating engineer (3)
Took my gal away and they left me standing here

I was standing at the station, waiting for my train
Standing at the station, waiting for my train (2)
And the tears run down just like the drops of rain

Mr. Engineer, turn your engine 'round (3)
For the woman I love, she done blowed this town

Gonna leave here walkin', talkin' to myself (3)
The woman I love, she can have somebody else
