Lyrics:
Now freight train keeps rolling and leaves a riding to be There's folks in Natchez that I'm longing to see The wide cotton's growing and the magnolia's in bloom Just ten miles from Natchez that's where I'll be making my home Got a lettter from sister she said they miss me at home The farm is neglected cause papa can't work at the loam Now they held this mailing mama's hair's turning grey Just ten miles from Natchez and I'll be back with them to stay [ dobro ] I wanted to ramble you know how a young boy would dream Off to Chicago searching for fortune and fame Spent many long nights with the hoboes down by the track Homesick in Natchez and too much proud to go back I went to Alaska searching the mountains for gold I might have stayed but the winters there are so cold Went down to old Frisco work on the docks for a while I was doing all right till this bound freight caught my eye Just ten miles from Natchez that's where I'll be making my home
