[Chorus]
Well, somebody robbed the Glendale train
This morning at half past nine
Somebody robbed the Glendale train
And I swear I ain't lyin'
They made clean off with sixteen G's
And left two men lying cold
Somebody robbed the Glendale train
And they made off with the gold

[Verse 1]
Now, Charlie Jones was the engineer
He had twenty years on the line
He kissed his wife at the station gate
This morning at 6:35
Now everything went fine 'til half past nine
Then Charlie looked up and he saw
There was men on horses, men with guns
And no sign of the law

[Chorus]
And somebody robbed the Glendale train
This morning at half past nine
Somebody robbed the Glendale train
And I swear I ain't lyin'
They made clean off with sixteen G's
And left two men lying cold
Somebody robbed the Glendale train
And they made off with the gold
[Verse 2]
Amos White was the baggage man
And he dearly loved his job
The company, they rewarded him
With a golden watch and fob
Well, Amos, he was a-marking time
When the door blew off his car
They found Amos White in fifteen pieces
Fifteen miles apart

[Chorus]
And somebody robbed the Glendale train
This morning at half past nine
Somebody robbed the Glendale train
And I swear I ain't lyin'
They made clean off with sixteen G's
And left two men lying cold
Somebody robbed the Glendale train
And they made off with the gold

[Outro]
I said somebody robbed the Glendale train
And they made off with the gold
