Train In The Distance

Intro: VERSES 1 & 2: When I was a young boy, roamin’ on the railroad tracks Put copper pennies on the rails, locomotive come and squash ’em flat We’d run to fetch ’em back, we’d run to fetch ’em back Summer nights at Gran-ma's house, cozy in my bed Dreams of far off places, and other lives to be led Swirling in my head, swirling in my head And there's a train in the distance, there’s a whistle calling There's a train in the distance, silver moonlight falling verse 3: Now, I am a grown man, turning in my sleep Debts and obligations, family ties run deep Promises to keep, promises to keep But there's a train in the distance, there’s a whistle calling There's a train in the distance, there’s a light rain falling Instrumental:
