blackie the rodeo kings – 49 tons lyrics
there were seventeen cars out in my back yard,
the boys in blue are calling my name,
semi-automatic up on the rooftop,
they just to want to talk to me,
i told them what they wanted to hear,
the only thing that i knew:
forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
couldn’t drag me back to you.
everywhere you look, there’s a train wreck, baby,
everywhere you look, there’s a runaway train,
play my heart like a bottleneck, baby,
running up and down and pulling its strings.
everywhere you go, everybody knows,
you’re looking for someone to do.
forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
couldn’t drag me back to you.
if i was a switchman, if i was a brakeman,
if i was an engineer,
i’d point that train on down the track
and clear on out of here.
if i was the man swinging the lantern,
i’d swing it ’til it was blue.
forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
couldn’t drag me back to you.
forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
couldn’t drag me back to you.
forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
couldn’t drag me back to you.
forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
couldn’t drag me back to you.
forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
couldn’t drag me back to you.
