Album: Careless Hands [RCA Victor]
(Red Lane)
A lonesome whistle sails through the pines
And finds me crying on my pillow
I wipe the tears and raise up my head
I hear a forest call up low.
Listen, yonder comes a train, mama
Is that the one he's on
The only thing that keeps me goin'
Is knowin' he's coming back home
And yonder comes a train.
I broke his heart and he got on a train
And told me come back anytime
Hope that I must have heard that old lonesome whistle
At least ten thousand times.
Listen. yonder comes a train, mama
Is that the one he's on
The only thing that keeps me goin'
Is knowin' he's coming back home
And yonder comes a train...
