Oh-oh

Walking in the midnight rain

Thought I heard a southbound train
Call your name
Nancy


Walking in the rain all day
Guess there wasn't nobody goin' my way

They didn't stop at all
But I will get back to you if I have to crawl


Nancy I told you in my letter
Things didn't appear to be no better at all
And this ol' highway's a hell of a line

Nancy I just spent my last dime to make this call
Oh Nancy
I'll get back to you if I have to crawl

Oh yeah

[solo]


Oh yeah, mmmmm


I left my home for a job in the city
It's a crying shame
It's a pity

It ain't livin' at all
Nobody knows my name
They don't even give a thang about me t'all

Nancy
Baby I'm getting back to you if I have to crawl
Ohh


Nancy I told you in my letter
Things didn't appear to be no better at all

This ol' highway's a hell of a line
Nancy I just spent my last dime to make this call
Nancy

Baby I'll get back to you if I have to crawl
Oh yeah yeah oh oh
Oh Nancy

Oh Nancy
