I'm stuck here in this bordertown
That girl I had is up and gone
I'm feelin' as low as my shoes
Maybe even lower than my shoes
I'm sittin' here a waitin'
Waitin' on that train
Waitin' on that train

Could have caught that early train
Then I went and lost my mind
Took the time to wet my thirsty throat
Wound up with a girl I didn't know
I'm sittin' here a waitin'
Waitin' on that train
Waitin' on that train

Night are long in a bordertown
I missed that train I should be on
Traded in my ticket for a song
Wound up singin' all night long
So I'm sittin' here a waitin'
Waitin' on that train
Waitin' on that train

Those border gals in a bordertown
Will get your money when your down
Like a parking meter takes your last dime
That border girl sure got mine
So I'm sittin' here a waitin'
Waitin' on that train
Waitin' on that train
