letra de play a train song - robert earl keen

Loading...

a smokin’, long black cadillac; the engine’s winding down
he parked it up on the sidewalk like he owned the whole d-mn town.
i saw him talking to some chick through a thick ghost of smoke,
through a thicker haze of southern comfort and coke.

“say girl you’re hotter than the hinges hanging off the gates of h-ll.
don’t be afraid to turn to me babe if he don’t treat you well.”
and by he, he meant me, so i laughed and i shook his hand.
he laughed a little bit louder as he yelled up at the band.

“play a train song, pour me one more round.
make ’em leave my boots on; on the day they lay me down.
i am a runaway locomotive, out of my one-track mind.
play a train song. play a train song.”

i got this old black leather jacket. got this pack of marlboro reds.
got this stash here in my pocket. got these thoughts in my own head.
i’m gonna run until i have to walk, until i have to crawl.
got this moment that i’m living in and nothing else at all.

“play a train song, pour me one more round.
make ’em leave my boots on; on the day they lay me down.
i am a runaway locomotive, out of my one-track mind.
play a train song. play a train song.”

(solo)

in the television blizzard lights, we looked around his place.
a little cold beer on his sofa, a little smile across his face.
and though i tried with all of my sadness, somehow i just could not weep
for a man who looked to me like he died laughing in his sleep.

singing a train song, pour him one last round
made ’em leave his boots on; on the day they layed him down.
he was a runaway locomotive, out of his one-track mind.
play a train song. play a train song.
play a train song. play a train song.
