Testi

Sittin' on the dock, at Union Station
Waitin' on the Pride of the Indian Nation
Fastest thing on metal wings or wheels
People come from all directions
Just to see their own reflections
In a thousand tons of polished steel
They say "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
With a hoot and a holler
All the way to San Antone"
They say "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
I got a dime, and a dollar
And a one-way ticket home"
Whistles whine, when the brakeman pull it
See her fly, like a silver bullet
Past the houses, through the sleepy hills
Blackjack oak, and red dust risin'
Scarlet sun, on the blue horizon
Hear the lonesome call, of the whippoorwill
He says "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
With a hoot and a holler
All the way to San Antone"
He says "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
I got a dime, and a dollar
And a one-way ticket home"
Kids come out, their eyes a-poppin'
Young men runnin', old men hoppin'
When they hear the mighty engine roar
Lords a-leap, and bands a-playin'
Ladies dancin', hound dogs bayin'
Passengers and hopefuls, by the score
They say "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
With a hoot and a holler
All the way to San Antone"
They say "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
I got a dime, and a dollar
And a one-way ticket home"
Now, baby, I would beg, or borrow
Hock my own best boots tomorrow
Just to get up on that train, and go
Kings and beggars, saints and villains
You and me, and all God's chilluns
Ponca City, to the Gulf of Mexico
They say "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
With a hoot and a holler
All the way to San Antone"
They say "Hey, conductor
Does this train go to Texas?
I got a dime, and a dollar
And a one-way ticket home"
I got a dime, and a dollar
And a one-way ticket home
