lyrics

It's all out on the old railroad,
It's all out to sea.
It's all out on the old railroad,
As far as I can see.
Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.
Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.

If I had a needle and thread,
Fine as I can sew,
I'd sew my darling to my side
And down the road we'd go.
Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.

If I had no horse at all
You could find me calling.
Out here on this rocky road,
Looking for my darling.
Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.

Some they come on Saturday night,
Some they come on Sunday.
If you gave them half a chance,
They'd still be here on Monday.
Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.

Coffee grows on the white oak tree,
Sugar runs in brandy.
Boys as pure as solid gold,
Girls as sweet as candy.
Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.

Hardest work I ever done,
Working on the farm.
Easiest work I ever done,
Swinging my darling's arm.
Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.

Swing and turn,
Jubilee.
Live and learn,
Jubilee.

about

David Allen Thomas Cockeysville, Maryland

I was released in Philadelphia the same week as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. I stayed there as long as I could stand, then moved to Baltimore to go to art school. I have played guitar since I was 18. I taught myself. I did it to impress the ladies. It still doesn't work. So, I sing songs about drinking, trains and women, two of which I am familiar with. ... more
