Texas Bound Train

Intro: Verse Well I waited all night by the railroad tracks, Hoping that train would come soon. I got two more smokes, half a bottle of scotch, Man, I ain't got too much to lose. I toss slop at a local truck stop, In a town just out of Pittsburgh, PA. I make two twenty five but I still ain't alive, Lord I need a Texas bound train. Yeah, I gotta find a Texas bound train. Take me I want to go, I want to see where that red river flows. Steel wheels burnin? into the night, Take this cowboy home on a midnight ride. On a midnight ride... On a midnight ride... Instrumental Verse It's a long trip down them railroad tracks, To Texas I've never seen. I've heard stories of toil about old men and their oil, And how they lost their riches and dreams. Now, the angels came down in my dreams last night, While outside it was stormin? rain. There was a rhythm of drops beatin? on the rooftops, And the angels sang of a train. They sang you gotta find a Texas bound train Take me I want to go, I want to see where that red river flows. Steel wheels burnin? into the night, Take this cowboy home on a midnight ride. On a midnight ride... Take me I want to go, I want to see where that red river flows. Steel wheels burnin? into the night, Take this cowboy home on a midnight ride. On a midnight ride... On a midnight ride... Oooooh oooo
