this ol' train - the grascals lyrics
[verse 1]
ten miles off the rural route was the farm i grew up on
my daddy’s life was between the rows, i just wanted to be gone
days are long and the sun is hot workin’ tobacco land
you got big city dreams and the hoe don’t fit your hands
[chorus]
i remember how i dreamed about the day i’d ride
those big steel wheels to dallas and leave this farm behind
someday to see the city, meet a girl who’d be my wife
and i owe it all to that ol’ train to save me from this life
[verse 2]
that lonesome railroad whistle was music to my ears
that midnight train could one day be my tickеt outta here
a country boy was longin’ to be rollin’ down thе line
and every night i’d ride the rails, if only in my mind
[verse 3]
it broke my daddy’s heart, but our plans just weren’t the same
he wanted me to work this land to carry on his name
i headed out to live a dream that’s always been mine
today ol’ train, i’m ready to leave this farm behind
[chorus]
i remember how i dreamed about the day i’d ride
those big steel wheels to dallas and leave this farm behind
someday to see the city, meet a girl who’d be my wife
and i owe it all to that ol’ train to save me from this life
