blue highway - both ends of the train lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i roomed with him in rockville in 1925
he was doin’ life, and i was doin’ time
his memory drifted back when he was most alive
when frank and jesse james were in their prime
he was a corporal, fought the kiowa and sioux
from sulphur springs to kansas clay
ran into trouble when his soldier days were through
ended up a thousand miles away

[chorus]
don’t waste fond words or sad goodbye
lay me down on the wide open plain
out beneath the quilted sky
where i can see both ends of the train

[verse 3]
he said, “i saw the buffalo, the herds would last for days
back before the railroad came
now it’s all moved on without me, but i miss the older ways
and i know it can never be the same.”
they buried him at rockville and his kind won’t rise again
i hope his soul can find some rest
to the world he’s long forgotten, but to me he was a friend
i still recall his last request
[chorus]
don’t waste fond words or sad goodbye
lay me down on the wide open plain
out beneath the quilted sky
where i can see both ends of the train
