Just Another Railroad Train

Just another railroad train

Full freight of promises

It's rolling through some dirty backwoods now

Just another railroad train

Full freight of promises

Like when you were a child

I could hear magic in my ears if I listened

There was treasure 'neath my feet if I just dug

And there were dangerous secrets in the dark woods

That I needed to know

But it was soon time to go listen

I hear another railroad train

Full freight of promises

It's rolling through some dirty backwoods now

Just another railroad train

Full freight of promises

Like when you were a child

I chased her down among the fruit trees

Through the clotheslines

A heaven of fresh cotton 'round my nose

You know the world of nature laughs at people

We should be laughing too

The twelve forty's passing through

Just another railroad train

Full freight of promises

Like when you were a child

When you were a child
