I had a dream last night
I thought my good gal had gone
Well, I woke up this morning
She really had done me wrong
I know it's not fair
But my good gal has done caught air

I'm goin' away
Leaving today
I'm gonna bring my baby back
If that eight wheel driver don't jump the railroad track
I'll take her from that man
Gonna bring her home if I can

My gal's been triflin' 'round
About a week I know
Several of my friends
Just told me so and so
She's found new man
And now I can understand

So I'm goin' away
Leaving today
I'm gonna bring my baby back
If that eight wheel driver don't jump the railroad track
I'll take her from that man
Gonna bring her home if I can

Well, it's true, my baby's gone
I know it won't be long
We'll both be on that train
My baby's coming home again
She's been triflin' 'round
But now she has turned him down

Yeah I'm goin' away
Leaving today
I'm gonna bring my baby back
If that eight wheel driver don't jump the railroad track
I'll take her from that man
Gonna bring her home if I can
