Train Carried My Girl From Town Lyrics - Shine Eyed Mister Zen - Kelly Joe Phelps

where were you when the train left town 

I was standing on the corner, my head hanging down 

I be crying hey, train carried my girl away 

I be crying hey, that train carried my girl away from town 

ashes to ashes and dust to dust 

show me the woman that I can trust 

I be crying hey, train carried my girl away 

I be crying hey, that train carried my girl away from town 

I wish to the lord that train would wreck 

kill the engineer and break that fireman's neck 

I wish to the lord that train would turn around 

bring my girl back to this here town 

I be crying hey, train carried my girl away 

I be crying hey, that train carried my girl away from town 

smoke-cloud rising, heading for the west 

there goes the baby that I love the best 

smoke-cloud falling down from the sky 

oh my girl won't you tell me why 

train carried my girl away from town
