The healing power of a train.
Blues Lyrics set to Rootsy Instrumentation.
Story behind the song
I love the imagery of trains and have always dreamed of leaving town for good on one.
Lyrics
I Hear That Train / Weldon 2008
I hear--- that train, coming down that line
C'mon train, take me away from here
I see--- that cloud, smoke stack stains the sky
coal burning, pitch black ash like my heart
And as the sun--- comes up, on this day of my pitiful life
my body shakes, and trembles in waves of pain
I hear--- that train, coming down that line
C'mon train, take me away from here
I need--- that train, to save me from myself
a thousand hands that laid that track are gonna heal my heart
I never dreamed--- of the day, that I'd ever leave this town but one more day here, and I'll be crawling down on my knees
I hear--- that train, coming down that line
C'mon train, take me away from here
