Maybe some of you can add to this thought ... 
=========================
I saw that train a comin'
Comin' on down the line

Yeah, I saw it comin'
But I couldn't move in time

She ran me right over
I was splattered on the clover

Yeah, I saw it comin'
But I couldn't move in time

That girl she hurt me bad
Yeah, she hurt me bad

Oh yes, I saw it comin'
But I couldn't leave in time

Oh yes, I saw it comin'
But I couldn't leave in time

I saw that train a comin', comin' on down the line
Yeah, I saw it comin', but I couldn't move in time
So she ran me over, right at the crossing sign.

She blew my steam, whoo-hoo!
Then she told me it was over, this time we were through
Well she ran me over, right at the crossing sign.

She ran me right on over, I was splattered on the clover
Yeah, I saw it comin', but I couldn't move in time
So that woman ran me over, right at the crossing sign.

That girl she hurt me bad, you know I ain't lyin'
Oh yes, I saw it comin', but I couldn't leave in time
So she ran me over, right at the crossing sign.

You can probably do lots more with "ties and lies", "track and ain't never comin' back", etc. etc.

As I lay here, dyin' on the track, i watch her caboose,
it ain't never comin' back... whooo wooo. :)

Yeah, and he's "not dead yet." You wouldn't want him to die happy, would ya?  It's the blues.

Tough MF'er eh? splatted by a train and lives.... now that is a blues song.  ;)

I saw the train coming
Heading right my way
I heard my woman calling
But I let it head my way

I saw the train coming
It's gonna take the pain away
Sick of living and the strife
Heading for a better life

Well that's my two pennies worth  :D

what kind of sound is the "whoo hoo" because that would generally be like a happy sound if you were singing it...right? kinda like YIPPEE..

You're right, "whoo hoo" would be happy sounding. 

But this is "whooo wooo"  :)  Kinda like the minor variation of "whoo hoo."  Very sad.  Very.  :'( 

Think mournful train whistle...
