Charleston Railroad Tavern-Bobby Bare

(Jerry Dean Smith)
Charleston Railroad Tavern
Sittlin＇ up till I＇m blind
She left on that 5-0-9
Eastern standard blue time.
My baby left this evening
I＇d changed all this if I could
But her train just pulled out of sight
I know she＇s gone for good.
So Charleston Railroad Tavern
Sittlin＇ up till I＇m blind
She left on that 5-0-9
Eastern standard blue time.
I stayed out so many nights
The crowd downtown was fun
But her love had turned to hate
Before I knew the harm I＇d done.
Now the laughing tavern crowd is gone
I＇m so lonesome I could die
The man just said it＇s closing time
Guess I＇ll go home and cry.
So Charleston Railroad Tavern
Sittlin＇ up till I＇m blind
She left on that 5-0-9
Eastern standard blue time...
