Lyrics:
Coming on the night train With an arm full of box cars On the wings of a magpie Cross a hooligan night Busted up a chifforobe Way out by the cocomo Cooked up a mess a mulligan And got into a fight Whistlin' past the graveyard Steppin' on a crack I'm a mean motherhubbard Papa one eyes jack You probably seen me sleepin' Out by the railroad tracks Ask the prince of darkness About all the smoke Come from the stack Sometimes I kill a jackal And suck out all the blood Steal myself a station-wagon Drivin' through the mud Whistlin' past the graveyard Steppin' on a crack I'm a mean motherhubbard Papa one eyed jack I know you've seen my headlights And the honkin' of my horn I'm callin' out my bloodhounds Chase the devil out the corn Last night I chugged the Mississippi Now it's dry as a bone I was born in a taxi cab I ain't never goin' home Whistlin' past the graveyard Steppin' on a crack I'm a mean motherhubbard Papa one eyed jack My eyes have seen the glory Of the drainin' of the ditch I'm comin' to baton rouge To find myself a witch I'm gonna switch me up a Couple of 'em every time it rains You gotta see a locomotive Probably thinkin' it's a train Whistlin' past the graveyard Steppin' on a crack I'm a mean motherhubbard Papa one eyed jack What you think is sunshine Is just a twinkle in my eye I got a ring around my fingers Called the 4th of July When I get lonesome And a tear falls from my check There's gonna be an ocean in The middle of the week Whistlin' past the graveyard Steppin' on a crack Mean motherhubbard Papa one eyed jack I come in on the night train With an arm full of box cars On the wings of a magpie Cross a hooligan night I'm gonna tear off a rainbow And wear it for a tie I never told the truth So honey how can I tell a lie Whistlin' past the graveyard Steppin' on a crack I'm a mean motherhubbard Papa one eyed jack
