I'm gon-na ride old Rail-road Bill.

verse 2
Railroad Bill, he was a mighty mean man,
He shot the midnight lantern 
out the brakeman's hand,
I'm gonna ride old Railroad Bill.

verse 3
Railroad Bill took my wife,
Said, if I didn't like it
he would take my life,
I'm gonna ride old Railroad Bill.

verse 4
Going up on the mountain,
going out west,
"Thirty-eight special" 
sticking out of my vest,
I'm gonna ride old Railroad Bill.

verse 5
I've got a "thirty-eight special"
on a "forty-four frame,"
How in the world can I miss him
when I've got dead aim.
I'm gonna ride old Railroad Bill.
