Boxcars

Well I gave all my money to the banker this month\nNow I got no more money to spend\nShe smiled when she saw me comin' through that door\nWhen I left she said, «Come back again.»\nI watched them lonesome boxcar wheels\nTurnin' down the tracks out of town\nAnd it’s on that lonesome railroad track\nI’m gonna lay my burden down.\nI was raised on a farm the first years of my life\nLife was pretty good they say\nI’ll probably live to be some ripe ol' age\nIf death’ll stay out of my way\nThis world can take my money and time\nBut it sure can’t take my soul\nI’m goin' down to the railroad tracks\nWatch them lonesome boxcars roll\nThere’s some big ol' Buicks at the Baptist church\nCaddilacs at the Church of Christ\nI parked my camel by an ol' haystack\nI’ll be lookin for that needle all night\nThere ain’t gonna be no radial tires\nTurnin' down the streets of gold\nI’m goin down to the railroad tracks\nAnd watch them lonesome boxcars roll\nNow if you ever heard the whistle on a fast freight train\nBeatin' out a beautiful tune\nIf you ever seen the cold blue railroad tracks\nShinin' by the light of the moon\nIf you ever felt the locomotive shake the ground\nI know you don’t have to be told\nWhy I’m goin down to the railroad tracks\nAnd watch them lonesome boxcars roll.\nYeah, I’m goin down to the railroad tracks\nWatch them lonesome boxcars roll
