Well I went walking out this morning 
     E              A 
With rambling on my mind 
              D         A
I am going to catch the special 
     E                     A
That train called Lonesome Pine 
 
Can't you hear the whistle blowin' 
         E               A
As she's coming down the line 
                  D          A
It?s a train I?ll catch this morning 
       E               A
For to ease my worried mind 
E                     A
Yo-ah-le-ho, ah-le-ho-lay 
E                     A
Yo-ah-le-ho, ah-le-ho-lay 
D               A
Take me back to Texas 
E              A 
Back to my old home 
 
Well I?ve been weeping like a willow 
And I've been mourning like a dove 
There's a girl way out in Texas 
That I know I really love 
Won?t you take me back to Texas 
Where the lonesome coyotes whine 
Where the longhorn cattle are roaming 
Around that cabin home of mine 
Yo-ah-le-ho, ah-le-ho-lay 
Yo-ah-le-ho, ah-le-ho-lay 
Take me back to Texas 
Back to my old home 
 
Yo-ah-le-ho, ah-le-ho-lay 
Yo-ah-le-ho, ah-le-ho-lay 
Take me back to Texas 
Back to my old home 
Take me back to Texas 
Back to my old home
