Going Back to Luka Songtext

Going Back to Iuka (Nix)

You know my teardrops fell
Oh, from the letter I read
My teardrops fell
Oh, from the letter I read
It said, "Come on home
Your baby′s almost dead"

Oh, the train that I ride
I ride it all night long
Oh, the train that I ride
I ride it all night long
Well, I'm going back to Iuka
That′s where I belong

Oh!

(solo)


Oh, the train that I ride
I ride it all night long
Oh, the train that I ride
I ride it all night long
Well, I'm going back to Iuka
That's where I belong

Oh, when I get there
If my baby pass on by
Oh, when I get there
If my baby pass on by
Oh, when I get there
Please tell me where he lie

You know my teardrops fell
Oh, from the letter I read
You know my teardrops fell
Oh, from the letter I read
It said, "Come on home
Your baby′s almost dead"

Oh, the train that I ride
I ride it all night long
Oh, the train that I ride
I ride it all night long
Well, I′m going back to Iuka
That's where I belong

Whoa! Take it on home!
