Doesn't Anybody Know My Name - Rod McKuen

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

My Momma’s took to bed

Now my old dog Red’s gone lame

Please tell me if you can

What time the trains roll in?

Two-ten, six-eighteen, ten-forty-four

The hedge is turning brown

The house is falling down

Doesn’t anybody know my name?

The girl I left behind

She’s run off to Carolin'

I don’t have to read a sign

To know that things ain’t the same

Please tell me if you can

What time the trains roll in?

Two-ten, six-eighteen, ten-forty-four

You can’t go far away

On just a soldier’s pay

Doesn’t anybody know my name?

Used to be when I could see

Everybody wanted me

Now nobody comes to see

The blind man catch a train

Please tell me if you can

What time the trains roll in?

Two-ten, six-eighteen, ten-forty-four
