lirik lagu the yardbirds - train kept a rollin'

(t. bradshaw / l. mann / h. kay)
studio version
this version has a double-tracked vocal from keith relf (recorded two different dates). the lyrics are slightly altered. i have tried to capture the vocal mixed in the background in ‘()’ brackets following the main lyric.

i caught the train, i met a dame,
she was a hipster, well and a real cool dame,
(she was handsome,)
she was pretty, from new york city,
well and we trucked on down in that old fairlane,
(goin’ on,)
with a heave, and a ho,
(wo,)
well, i just couldn’t let her go.
(yes i did,)
get along, sweet little woman, get along,
be on your way,
get along, sweet little woman, get along,
be on your way,
with a heave, and a ho,
(love the way you walk,)
i just couldn’t let her go.
(yes i do now.)

well, the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
(sweet little woman, get along,)
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
([you’re my queen?])
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
(sweet little woman, get along,)
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
([you’re my queen?])
with a heave, and a ho,
(love the way you walk,)
well i just couldn’t let her go,
(yes i do.)

we made a stop at albuquerque,
she must have thought i was a real gone jerk,
we got out the train in el paso,
lookin’ so good, jack, i couldn’t let her go.
get along, sweet little woman, get along,
(oh, right,)
well, the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
with a heave, and a ho,
well i just couldn’t let her go.

bbc version
i caught the train, i met a dame,
she was a hipster, well and a real cool dame,
she was pretty, from new york city,
well and we trucked on down in that old fairlane.
with a heave, and a ho,
and i just couldn’t let her go,
get along, sweet little woman, get along,
better be on your way,
get along, sweet little woman, get along,
better be on your way,
with a heave, and a ho,
i just couldn’t let her go,
no.

yeah, the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
the train kept a-rollin’, all night long,
with a heave, and a ho,
just couldn’t let her go,
no.

we made a stop at albuquerque,
she must have thought i was a real gone jerk,
we got out the train in el paso,
lookin’ so good, that i couldn’t let ‘er go.
with a heave, and a ho,
i just couldn’t let her go,
get along, sweet little woman get along,
better be on your way,
get along, sweet little woman get along,
be on your way,
with a heave, and a ho,
i just couldn’t let her go,
no.
