letra de railroad blues - beastie boys
“all aboard, track 17, all aboard'”
yeehaw!
now this song is dedicated
to all the hard workin’ pioneers of this country
setting out discovering the west
bringin’ a railroad to where no man has ever been before
johnny he worked on a railroad
a poundin’ on iron and steel
workin’ his way out west now
the only sure thing’s his next meal
america was young
but she was a growin’
layin’ tracks across the prairie
not knowing where they’re going
his momma didn’t wanna’ leave him
but now he’s in the west
she said, “please don’t go”
but he said, “if i don’t i’ll never rest”
it wasn’t always easy
some of the boys died
johnny wrote her letters
but he received no replies
johnny he worked on a railroad
a poundin’ on iron and steel
workin’ his way out west now
the only sure thing’s his next meal
johnny reached san francisco
tired and broke without a dime
started panning for gold
just a hopin’ he would find
the gold wasn’t a rushin’
but johnny kept on minin’
trying to send his mama something
with the letters he was signing
then one day johnny finally got a reply
when he opens mama’s letter, he began to cry
she’s a writin’ from her deathbed and this is what she said
“please don’t be mad at me son ’cause tomorrow i’ll be dead”
johnny he worked on a railroad
a poundin’ on iron and steel
workin’ his way out west now
the only sure thing’s his next meal
