Chris Thile Lyrics
"Breakman's Blues"

Portland Maine is just the same as sunny Tennessee
Said, Portland Maine is just the same as sunny Tennessee
Any old place I hang my hat is home sweet home to me

I went down to the depot and I looked up on the board
I went down to the depot and I looked up on the board
You know It said "It's good times here, but better on down the road"

I'll eat my breakfast here and eat my dinner in New Orleans
Well I'll eat my breakfast here and eat my dinner in New Orleans
I'm gonna find me a woman, Lord, I ain't never seen

Where was you momma, when my train left the shed
Where was you momma, when my train left the shed
I was hanging by my front door, wishing to God I was dead

I went to a little gypsy at a fortune telling place
Well, I went to a little gypsy at a fortune telling place
She read my mind and then she slapped my face
