I didn't know my baby love me so until that letter come to let me knowNow I pack my bags and then I'll go and catch a first train I see headin' southIf I got this letter in Idaho where snow's so deep it wouldn't let me goI'd went hog wild and melted all that snowAnd caught a first train I saw headin' southIf I got this letter in Iowa nothing in this world could make me stayI'd grab my hat and then been on my way and caught a first train I see headin' southI didn't know my baby love me soI didn't know my baby love me soIf I got this letter in Ohio with a busted back and arms and broken toeThere'd be no hesitation I would go and catch a first train I saw headin' southBut I got this letter up in Maine you can bet your bottom dollar I feel the sameEvery clickety clack of drivers call her nameAs I ride this freight train I caught headin' southI didn't know my baby love me so From Letras Mania
