Hidin’ out by the water tank, where the shade is cool
Just watchin’ that straw boss hunt for me, I ain’t no-body’s fool
Fifteen dollars is my gain, fifteen is my draw
Randall Collins is my name, in the state of Arkansas

They’re a’making up train in the Memphis Yard, the longest I ever saw
Gonna ride it down to Fairbanks town in the state of Arkansas
Fifteen dollars is my gain, fifteen is my draw
Randall Collins is my name, in the state of Arkansas

Fifteen dollars is my gain, fifteen is my draw
Randall Collins is my name, in the state of Arkansas
