I hear that train a comin’
Comin’ down the line
Gonna meet you at the station
Gonna see that gal of mine

Bald Knob Arkansas see my Linda Lou
I will be her lovin’ man and I’ll always lover her true
Til I’m bald headed too

I’m awful tired and hungry now
Got nothin’ in my craw
I’m on my way back to see my girl
Back in Bald Knob Arkansas

Got a blue eyed girl a-waiting there
Sweetest I’d ever saw
Well I’m on my way to make her mine
Back in Bald Knob Arkansas
