What's the matter baby,
What's the matter now?
You keep on walking up and down the hall
Didn't touch your food, didn't get no sleep at all
Well my love is leaving on the Morning train
And it looks like he won't be back again

What's the matter baby
What's the matter now?
Where are you going with them blood red eyes
You're all messed up , you should stay inside
Well I've gotta go now, I'll miss the Morning Train
Won't you hand me my coat, cause it's pouring down rain

What's the matter baby
What's the matter now ?
Did you glimpse one last sight of your lover man
Tell me, did he board that Morning train?
Yes he's gone, he's gone, he took that train to ride
And all I could do was hang my head and cry
