I heard the laughter at [F] the depot, but [G] my tears fell like [C] the rain when I saw them place
that long [F] white casket in the [C] baggage coach [F]
of the [Am] [C] evening train.
The baby's eyes are red [F] from weeping, its [G] little heart is filled [C] with pain.
Oh, daddy, it cried, they're taking [F] mama away [C] from us [F]
on the [C] evening train.

As I turned to walk away from [F] the depot, it seemed [G] I heard her call [C] my name,
take care of my baby and tell [F] him, darling, that I'm going [C] home [F]
on the evening [C] train.
I pray that God will give [F] me courage to carry [G] on till we meet [C] again.
It's hard to know she's gone [F] forever, they're carrying [C] her home [F] on the evening [C] train.
