Good morning Mr Railroad man Im short on my fare

I'll gladly pay you Friday if you take me over there

I need a one way ticket if it isnt too much to ask

A one way destination. Because Im not coming back



An angry woman is after me. She's coming to hunt me down.

It doesnt have to be far. Just over to the next town

She found my purple lipstick. I told her it matches my purse.

She raised her hand with a frying pan. I think that made it worse



Well I try to explain but its in vain. Its my lipstick on my collar

I need to ride your railroad train so I wont hear her hollar.

Her voice is like thunder its oh so loud Its louder than a lion's roar

She's a blow horn with legs. Please don't make me beg

It travels for a mile or more.



Please Mr Railroad man. Now Im begging you

Ill pay you back when I can. Or will you take my high heeled shoes?

Your wife might like them but I have to warn size 12 is kind of large

When I wear my high heeled shoes people call me Marge.
