The Grateful Dead - Big Railroad Blues [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse]
Well my mama told me, my papa told me too
Now my mama told me, papa told me too
Well i shouldn't be here trying to sing these railroad blues

[Chorus]
Wish i had a listened to what my mama said
Wish i had a listened to what my mama said

[Verse 2]
Well i wouldn't be here trying to sleep in this cold iron bed
Well i went to the depot, i never got there on time
Went down to the depot, never got there on time
Well my train done left, she's a rolling down the line
Mister jailer go away now, don't tell me no lies
Mister jailer go away, don't tell me no lies
When the train's going down, she's rolling down the line

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Well i wouldn't be here trying to sleep in this cold iron bed
Well my mama told me, my papa told me too
Now my mama told me, papa told me too
Well i shouldn't be here trying to sing these railroad blues
