Hi, all-

I am new to this so I hope this comes through.

I found this site through Google and have been looking for years for lyrics to "A Railroader for Me." My mother and Aunt (born 1912 and 1909, respectively) sang this song as long as I can remember -- they learned it from their mother.

I recall the lyric about the "striped shirt" and know one other I have not seen here:
"I would not marry an old man
And I will tell you why
He chews so much tobaccy
His chin is never dry."

I would love to hear more and am so glad to find the ones on this thread.

Feel free to contact me at any time! mcecannon@gmail.com
