Definitely NOT something they’d ever play on B.B. King’s Bluesville or at a blues festival.

That's alright is pretty much pure country.
Just the way the opening signing begins Staaaaaaaation Maaaaan. The verses are pure blues. The train has nothing to do with it.
Strange you cant hear the bluesy nature of the song. It fits in the mold of all their songs in that era. The song does snap out of the zone a bit but could never scratch it off the blues list.
