Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill, he doesn't work and he never will
And it's ride, ride, ride, ride
Buy me a chicken, send me a wing
It'll look like I've been working, but I ain't done a thing
And it's ride, ride, ride, ride
Railroad Bill was a mighty mean man
He shot the midnight lantern out of the brakeman's hand
And it's ride, ride, ride, ride
I'm going up a mountain, I'm going out west
Got a forty-four pistol sticking out my vest
And it's ride, ride, ride, ride
Railroad Bill, well he took my wife
He said if I don't like it, he would take my life
And it's ride, ride, ride, ride
Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill
Rollin' up a cigar with a ten dollar bill
And it's ride, ride, ride, ride
I'm gonna find me a pistol as long as my arm
I'll kill everybody who's ever done me harm
And it's ride, ride, ride, ride
I'm a mountain jumper, when I ride the night

The instrumentation and songwriting in this album is really top-tier. Aofie is one of my favorite folk/alt-country artists and she performs wonderfully, bringing her unique tone of voice to this project. This album was my first step into Aofie's artistry, and is firmly one of my favorite albums. rileyridgway
