One Minute You're Here

Big black train comin' down the track Blow your whistle lone and long One minute you're here Next minute you're gone I lay my penny down on the rails As the summer wind sings its last song One minute you're here Next minute you're gone Baby, baby, baby I'm so alone Baby, baby, baby I'm coming home Autumn carnival on the edge of town We walk down the midway arm-in-arm One minute you're here Next minute you're gone I thought I knew just who I was And what I'd do, but I was wrong One minute you're here Next minute you're gone Red river running 'long the edge of town On the muddy banks I lay my body down This body down Footsteps cracklin' on a gravel road Stars vanish in a sky as black as stone One minute you're here Next minute you're gone One minute you're here Next minute you're gone One minute you're here
