Sunny Land, Sunny Land
That runs on the Frisco Line
Sunny Land, Sunny Land
That runs on the Frisco Line
Have came through here
Stole that girl of mine

Ev'rytime I look at her picture
Hanging up in a frame
Ev'rytime I look at her picture
Hanging up in a frame
It makes me think about
That lowdown dirty Sunny Land train

So now I'll send her
A long distant telegram
So now I'll send her
A long distant telegram
A woman don't know how to treat a good man
When he have ways just like a lamb

Evrytime I hear how
That lonesome Sunny Land, blow
Evrytime I hear how
That lonesome Sunny Land, blow
It makes me have a feeling
That I have never had befo'

I'm going to the station
Catch the fastest train I see
I'm going to the station
Catch the fastest train I see
And that's the train, baby
That's going to carry me.
