[Verse 1]
Well, there's two trains a running
But there's not one going my way
Yeah, when one runs at midnight
Are they just for a day
Are they just for a day
Are they just for a day

[Verse 2]
I went down to my baby's house
And I sat down on the steps
Said, "Come on in here, babe
My old man just left
He just now left
Oh, my old man left"

[Verse 3]
Yes, I wish I was a catfish
Swimming in the deep blue sea
I'd have all you pretty women
Fishing after me
Fishing after me
Fishing after me

[Verse 4]
I went down to my baby's house
And I sat down on her steps
Said, "Come on in here, babe
My old man just left
He just now left
Oh, my old man left"
[Verse 5]
Well, she's long and she's tall
And she shakes like a willow tree
Say she's no good
She's alright with me
She alright
She's alright with me
She's alright with me

[Outro]
Oh, little girl's alright
Oh, yeah, she gives me loving
In the morning
Take care, loving, baby
She's alright
She alright
She alright
She alright
