[Intro]
A G A G
[Verse 1]
Weevils took the cotton and the cows all took to dry
What the varmints left behind, the sun took up to dryin'
Trouble took to daddy like dew drops take to night
Mama took to cryin' a lot and daddy took to wine
[Chorus]
A E
And I took the train outta there
I told the engineer, I don't believe there's no help handy
Heaven, help the ties that bind a family
[Verse 2]
Sister took to walkin', and brother he took to cryin'
Mama took up with newfound friends, and I took up with crime
Hatred took the nighttime and the government took the day
Can't find no hands at harvest time and the hens refuse to lay
[Chorus]
A E
And I took the train outta there
I told the engineer, I don't believe there's no help handy
Heaven, help the ties that bind a family
[Instrumental]
A G A G A B
[Verse 3]
Flowers took to daddy and daddy took to gone
Sister took to black real nice and Mama cried alone
Brother took up preaching and the bank man took the farm
The state came in and took Mama away, and she couldn't do herself no harm
[Chorus]
B F#
And I took the train outta there
I told the engineer, I don't believe there's no help handy
Heaven, help the ties that bind a family
Heaven, help the ties that bind a family
[Outro]
