central pacific - parker millsap lyrics
[verse 1]
sun went careening
over the ceiling
and crashed onto the plains
set fire to the amber waves of grain
[verse 2]
the moon it dances
over acres and fences
and waltzes down into the water
sounds like the ring that i bought her
[verse 3]
there’s a gal
in california
i’ll see her when i get off this rail
sent her one last letter in the mail
[chorus]
will you wait for me
by the blue oak tree?
will you marry me?
i know i’ve been gone
and this rail road’s long
but i built it for to carry you a ring
[verse 4]
twelve hour days
for minimum wage
and i’ll carry every penny back to sacramento
this black chariot will let me swing home
[verse 5]
just a railroad man
with railroad hands
and i built this track to build you a home
i just built you a place to be alone
[verse 6]
all the way to promontory
i wrote a lovers’ story
and i’m comin’ back for to fulfill
the promises my letters did reveal
[chorus]
will you wait for me
by the blue oak tree?
will you marry me?
i know i’ve been gone
and this rail road’s long
but i built it for to carry you a ring
[chorus]
will you wait for me
by the blue oak tree?
will you marry me?
i know i’ve been gone
and this rail road’s long
but i built it for to carry you a ring
but i built it for to carry you a ring
but i built it for to carry you a ring
