Ghost Train

Lonesome trains call out to me Like a screaming ghost that whistle blows Haunts me in my sleep at night Of dark forgotten ramlin days Seems to know my name Seems to know my name Seems to know my name Seems to know my name Too many years I rode the rails Town to town, East to West Free livin costs a life to play Too high a price I can't go back Jimbo Walker was his name Tried to send me to my grave That brakeman fell on his own blade I buried him and changed my name Will they come for me Will they come for me Will they come for me Will they come for me I can hear that whistle call calling me I can hear that whistle blow... and I think I'll go Pick me up, take me away Rock me to sleep, haul my shame There's still ramblin in my bones yet Sing sweetly and I'll soon forget Where will it take me Where will it take me Where will it take me Where will it take me
