[Verse]
Dm                                C
Have you ever been a broken heart once or twice
                         Dm
If it´s yes, how did you feel at his first lies
                          Bb      F   F Em Dm 
If it´s no, you need this good advice
[Chorus]
Dm            C
Never marry a railroad man
                   Dm
He loves you every now and then
                    Bb   F
His heart is at his mule train 
F   Em  Dm
No! No! No!
Dm                        C
Don´t fall in love with a railroad man
                     Dm
If you do, forget of me if you can
                   Bb    F
You´re better of without him
