All night long, all night long
All night long, all night long
I'm going to the depot, look 'pon the board
If the train ain't here, somewhere on the road
Somewhere on the road, somewhere on the road
If the train ain't here, somewhere on the road
All night long, all night long
All night long, well, all night long
I'm going to the depot (fiddle finishes verse)
If I'd a-minded, what mama said
I could-a been a-sleeping in mama's bed
Me being young, and foolish, too
I left my home on the 'count of you
On the 'count of you, on the 'count of you
I left my home on the 'count of you
I'd druther be dead and in my grave
Than be in this town, treated this-a-way
All night long, all night long
All night long, all night long
H'ain't got no woman, h'ain't got no kin
H'ain't got nobody to be bothered with
All night long, all night long
All night long, all night long
So if I live and don't get killed
Gonna make my home in Louisville
All night long, all night long
All night long, from midnight on
All night long, all night long
All night long, all night long
