The Rail Song Lyrics

	作词 : Belew
	I recall as a boy we would hop the freights
	Wasn't nothin' but a kick back then
	There was no better thrill for my anxious heart
	Than a long flatcar
	Headin' out of the yard
	And i knew even then she was in my blood
	Like the time when i first hired on
	And the fireman laughed at my bony nose
	But he tossed me a cap
	Said gm&o
	And i was a man...
	I gave her my best years
	Well, what can you do but laugh
	I don't expect she'll ever be coming back
	When we climbed up the great appalachians
	Her engines would be raging like hell
	Then we'd come back down to the rising towns
	Where the cattle stare
	In the frozen air
	For me there nothing more sacred
	Than the beautiful sound she'd make
	Her long blue signal blowin' deep in the night,
	It would get to me there,
	It would get to me there
	Now i'm afraid...
	Afraid of these silent hours
	Awake underneath my old cap
	I don't expect she'll ever be coming back
	Well, i watched the beginning of the end for her
	When i saw my first jet airplane
	Flying high overhead like a bird of prey
	While the mighty fell
	In the land of the brave
	Now i'm alone.
