You used to love me,
you said I was your desire
You're actin' strange lately tryin' to,
drive my love away
I'm cuttin' out baby,
girl I'm goin' back up the line
If I stay another day, you're goin' to,
drive me out of my mind
Took me from my home,
I was nothin' but a child
Made all kinds a promises to me,
I know it was lyin' and jive
I'm cuttin' out baby,
girl I'm goin' back up the line
If I stay another day, you're goin' to,
drive me out of my mind
Train is at the station,
and I'm all packed to go
It ain't no use to worry,
'cause I won't be back no more
I'm cuttin' out baby,
girl I'm goin' back up the line
If I stay another day, you're goin' to,
drive me out of my mind
