Big Train

Here’s an old one from the old site I never brought over here

Big train
Rolling through the night
Your tracks keep clanking
Echoing off the mountainside
I wonder where your whistle
Will be blowing tomorrow night

You wake me from my sleep
When my eyes are open
That’s when I begin dream
About my baby on the platform
Waiting in a cloud of steam

This world
Holds nothing for me
It don’t rain no more
Yet the sun ain't shone for weeks
Not a single drop of rain
Yet my roof it always leaks

I’m gonna lay
Across the tracks
Send word to my baby
And tell her I’m coming back
I got everything I need I won't
Even need to pack

Big train
Rolling through the night
Keep that engine a pumpin’
Carry me to the light
I done punched my ticket
To that big switchyard in the sky

  • Dang, Pete! A brilliant suicide song if I got it right. Now, for a listen. Yeah, some wild guitar licks you got goin' there. Smashed that LIKE! And thank you, Pete for subscribing to my Youtube even tho' my channel's not about music. Whoa! Wild guitar!!! Lovin' it!

    Very cool song; lyrically clear as a bell. Not pathetic, just real.

  • Classic blues and bottleneck! Strong vocal performance too.
