| Get down boys | go back home |

| Riding the night in the high cold wind |
| D | G | |
| On the t | rail of that old lonesome | pine |
| G | |
| Thinkin' of you feeling so blue |
| D | G | |
| Wonderin' why I left you | behind |
| (CHORUS) |
| VERSE 2 |
| Remember the night we strolled down the lane |
| Our hearts were gay and happy then |
| You whispered to me when I held you close |
| We hoped that night would never end |
| (CHORUS) |
