Couplet
I Cheard the laughter at the Fdepot
But my tears Gfell like the Crain
When I saw them place that long white Fcasket
In the baggage Ccoach of Gthe evening Ctrain.
Couplet
The baby's eyes are red from Fweepin'
Its little Gheart is filled with Cpain.
"Oh daddy" it cried "they're taking Fmama
Away Cfrom us on the Gevening Ctrain."

Couplet
CAs I turned to walk away from the Fdepot
It seemed I Gheard her call my Cname
"Take care of my baby and tell him Fdarling'
That I'm going Chome on the Gevening Ctrain.
Refrain
I pray that God will give me Fcourage
To carry Gon till we meet Cagain.
It's hard to know she's gone Fforever.
They're carrying her Chome on the Gevening Ctrain
Refrain
I pray that God will give me Fcourage
To carry Gon till we meet Cagain.
It's hard to know she's gone Fforever.
They're carrying her Chome on the Gevening Ctrain
They're carrying her Chome on the Gevening Ctrain
