I heard the laughter at the de - pot, But my tears fell like the rain When I saw them place that long, white cas - ket In the baggage coach of the evening train. The baby's eyes are red from weepin' It's little heart is filled with pain. "Oh, daddy," it cried, "they're taking ma - ma Away from us on the evening train." Interlude: As I turned to walk away from the de - pot, It seemed I heard her call my name "Take care of my baby and tell him, dar - lin' That I'm going home on the evening train. I pray that God will give me cour - age To carry on till we meet a - gain. It's hard to know she's gone for - ever. They're carryin her home on the evening train Interlude: I pray that God will give me cour - age To carry on till we meet a - gain. It's hard to know she's gone for - ever. They're carryin her home on the evening train They're carryin her home on the evening train Interlude: For more Johnny Cash chords, see www.unofficial-johnnycash.com!
