The Log Train Lyrics - Hank Williams

If you will listen 

A song I will sing 

About my daddy 

Who ran a log train 

Way down in the southland 

In old Alabam' 

We lived in a place 

That they called Chapman Town 

And late in the evening 

When the sun was low 

Way off in the distance 

You could hear the train blow 

The folks would come runnin' 

and mama would sing 

Get the supper on the table 

Here comes the log train

Every morning 

At the break day 

He'd grab his lunch bucket 

And be on his way 

Winter or summer 

Sunshine or rain 

Every morning he'd run 

That old log train 

A sweatin' and swearin' 

All day long 

Shoutin' get up the oxens 

Keep movin' along 

Load'er up boys 

'cause it looks like rain 

I've got to get rollin' 

This old log train

This story happened 

A long time ago 

The log train is silent 

God called dad to go 

But when I get to heaven 

To always remain 

I'll listen for whistle 

On the old log train
