doomfarmer Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 the best ever.. avail "West Wye" sidetracked conveniently five steps from the mainline fresh off a grain porch drinking swill down from picking up in maine counting change "oh how i, i would do anything for that old junktrain to turn manifest and highball, yeah i'd sing that railroad song by the time the sun is setting in the west" no time or purpose as embers smolder holed up in pines of green pablo writes "dos" where mouths don't share what their eyes have seen "see those days are gone and i can't stand one more i've fought this war counting miles alone i've seen it all, every goddamn state out here son it's as rough as i have known" all i have known with sky above as home and ground beneath as bed is to ride fast live slow and without regret "i've got no time for regret those thoughts solve nothing in the end i've got blistered hands and lived full through rejection long endured 'cause i came up poor "hell no i, i wouldn't change a thing, those old junktrains all turn manifest and highball, yeah i'll sing that railroad song by the time the sun is setting in the west" [words derived from conversations with "old bill", a railroad bum, at the acca train yard on a cold, drunk december afternoon] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Æ° Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 The Eels - Railroad Man I feel like an old railroad man Ridin' out on the Bluemont Line Hummin' along Old Dominion Blues Not much to see, and not much left to lose And I know I can walk along the tracks It may take a little longer But I know how to find my way back I feel like an old railroad man Who's really tried the best that he can To make his life add up to something good But this engine no long burns on wood And I guess I may never understand The times that I live in Are not made for a railroad man I feel like an old railroad man Gettin' on board at the end of an age The station's empty and the whistle blows Things are faster now This train is just too slow And I know I can walk along the tracks It may take a little longer But I know how to find my way back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hava_nagila Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Well the king of railroad songs is always going to be the singin' brakeman- Jimmie Rodgers. Utah Phillips sings some good songs-and he's funny. Personally I like this guy Click here he has great songs about trains... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
