Train Song

The train don’t run here anymore
The train don’t run here anymore
It used to run right by my door
The train don’t run here anymore
Six o’clock in the evening
I’d stand out in my yard
It sounded like thunder
I could hear it comin’ far
And I’d give two thumbs up
To show them all was clear
And I’d get a whistle and a wave from the engineer
The train don’t run here anymore
The train don’t run here anymore
It used to run right by my door
The train don’t run here, it don’t run here, it don’t run here anymore
The years put a stoop upon my back
The weeds are growin’ in the tracks
They put the railroad up for sale
Turned it into a hiking trail
Oh, the train don’t run here anymore
The train don’t run here anymore
It used to run right by my door
The train don’t run here anymore
The train don’t run here anymore
The train don’t run here anymore
It used to run right by my door
The train don’t run here anymore
