"Two-Ten, Six-Eighteen" lyrics

"Two-Ten, Six-Eighteen"

I've been away so long
Fought a war that's come and gone
Doesn't anybody know my name?
My sister's up and wed and mama's took to bed
Doesn't anybody know my name?

Please tell me, if you can
What time do the trains roll in?
Two-ten, six-eighteen, ten forty-four

The hedge is turning brown and the fence is falling down
Doesn't anybody know my name?
The girl I left behind has gone to Caroline
Doesn't anybody know my name?

Please tell me, if you can
What time do the trains roll in?
Two-ten, six-eighteen, ten forty-four

Fought that war across the sea
Almost died to keep us free
Doesn't anybody know my name?
Now I'm home and no one cares
Seems that trouble's are only theirs
Doesn't anybody know my name?

Please tell me, if you can
What time do the trains roll in?
Two-ten, six-eighteen, ten forty-four

Doesn't anybody know my name?
