Andrew Bird - Railroad Bill Lyrics

Railroad bill, railroad bill
Never worked and he never will
I'm gonna ride railroad bill

Well, railroad bill was a mighty mean man
Shot the light out of the brakeman's hand
I'm gonna ride that bad railroad bill

Well miss mcmillan, she whooped and she squawked
That's my husband for I heard him fall
I'm gonna ride that bad railroad bill

Well I went down on number one
Railroad bill had just begun
I'm gonna ride railroad bill

Well I came back on number two
Railroad bill had just got through
I'm gonna ride railroad bill

Well I went down on number four
Someone let fly with a forty-four
I'm gonna ride railroad bill

Got a thirty-eight special in a forty-five frame
I ain't gonna miss 'cause I've got dead aim
I'm gonna ride that bad railroad bill

Well railroad bill, rolling down a hill
Lighting cigars with a ten-dollar bill
I'm gonna ride that bad railroad bill

Well, railroad bill says, before I die
I'm gonna build a railroad for the bums to ride
I'm gonna ride that bad railroad bill
