Lyle Lovett - Texas Trilogy: Train Ride Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Well, the last time I remember
  • That train stopping at the depot
  • Was when me and my aunt veta
  • Came riding back from waco
  • I remember I was wearing
  • My long pants and we was sharing
  • Conversation with a man
  • Who sold ball-point pens and paper
  • And the train stopped once in clifton
  • Where my aunt bought me some ice cream
  • And my mom was there to meet us
  • When the train pulled into kopperl
  • But now kids at night break window lights
  • And the sound of trains only remains
  • In the memory of the ones like me
  • Who have turned their backs on the splintered cracks
  • In the walls that stand on the railroad land
  • Where we used to play and then run away
  • From the depot man
  • I remember me and brother
  • Used to run down to the depot
  • Just to listen to the whistle
  • When the train pulled into kopperl
  • And the engine big and shiny
  • Black as coal that fed the fire
  • And the engineer would smile and say,
  • Howdy, how ya fellows?
  • And the people by the windows
  • Playing cards and reading papers
  • Looked as far away to us
  • As next summers school vacation
