Rhonda Vincent - Pa**in' Of The Train lyrics

Way back when it all began With muscle, wood and steel Mighty man tamed the land With a horse that rode on wheels It broke the heart of the red man And made a name for Jesse James A mark was left forever By the pa**ing of the train As a little child my thoughts ran wild As I clung to Mama's dress As the train grew near the engineer Waved my fears to rest He tipped his hat and pulled the cord And blew a long refrain Around midnight I'd be dreaming Of the pa**ing of the train Clickety clack heating up the track Can't you hear that whistle scream? She's a'letting you know just how she feels With a belly full of steam All aboard who's going aboard It'll never be the same It's a downright lonesome feeling With the pa**ing of the train That old caboose, they cut it loose And they ain't gonna bring it back It sits beside the towns that died Along a million miles of track We're always late when we get there So we'd sooner hop a plane But anyone who's heard that whistle Mourns the pa**ing of the train Clickety clack heating up the track Can't you hear that whistle scream? She's a'letting you know just how she feels All aboard who's going aboard It'll never be the same It's a downright lonesome feeling With the pa**ing of the train
