Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: Wave to Me, My Lady (Loesser/Stein)
Subject: Wave to me, my lady
From the dim recesses of my past comes suddenly the fragmentary recollection of a song heard from an old Victrola machine playing a song that went:

"Just got a job in the railroad yard.
Pay me good, work me hard.
Just got a job in the railroad yard
And now I'm doin' fine."

Chorus:
"So won't you wave to me my lady, wave to me my lady,
Wave to me my lady as I roll on down the line.
Oh won't you wave to me my lady, wave to me my lady,
Wave to me my lady down the line."

There were several more verses which my aging memory can no longer recall.

Help? Anybody?
