Come here sweet Conny, sit down on my knees
Come here sweet Conny, right on your papa knees
I want you to tell me your story, sweet Conny if you please
spoken: and she started to tell me about her life and those railroads too
Conny: Have you ever been sleeping papa, on a dead railroad line (x2)
concrete to be your pillow, red lights to be your moonshine
spoken: and I used to hear those morning trains running by, but none was
going my way, none was going back home, they use to come up like this,
listen the train a-running and the whistle blowing to...here's the train a-
runnin'...and the whistle blowin' too...guitar as a train
I've been on the game, papa, since I left my mama home (x2)
I've been rolling and I've been tumbling, drifting from door to door
spoken: and she started to tell me about her crying child and the song she
used to sing...guitar as a carillon
Conny sings: “oh my child, please don't cry, mama will drive away
mosquitos and flies, she will kiss your rosy chicks, glove your hands and
shoe your little feet...yeah...”
Nigeria farewell, I'm gon' die on a dead railroad line...repeat 'till the end...
