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'll 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 longer burns on wood

And I guess

I may never understand

The times that I live in

Are not made for

Railroad man

I feel like an old

Railroad man

Getting on board

At the

End of an age

The station's empty

And the

Whistle blows

Things are faster now

And this train

Is just too slow

And I know I can

Walk along the tracks

It may take a little longer

But I'll know

How to find

My way back
