I'm on the Red Ball to Natchez,
Mississippi.
There's a brown -eyed gal
waiting on the levee.
I'm riding the blind.
Gonna satisfy my mind.
Gonna see my old hometown tonight.
Oh, she's coming round the bend
There's a track, she's like the wind
Oh, she's bound to get to
Natchez on time
I've roamed and I've rambled
round the country
Just a light -hearted fellow all alone
But I got to thinkin' here
of my folks that are so dear
Down in Mississippi, boys,
I'm goin' home
I'm on the Red Ball to Natchez,
Mississippi
That's a brown -eyed gal
a -waitin' on the levee
I'm riding the blind
Gonna satisfy my mind
Gonna see my old hometown tonight
Oh, she's coming round the bend
There's a track she'd like to win
Oh, she's bound to get to Natchez's
hometown
Oh, the sun is shining
bright in Mississippi
And the people are as friendly as can be
Fill that box full of coal,
let the eight -wheel drivers roll
Cause that Red Bull train
can't go too fast for me
I'm on the Red Bull tonight to Mississippi
There's a brown -eyed
gal waiting on the levee
I'm riding the blind
Gonna satisfy my mind
Gonna see my old hometown tonight
Oh, she's coming round the bend,
where the tribes who like to win.
Oh, she's bound to get to
that just on time.
