Greenville Trestle High - Doc Watson[00:00:00]
I remember as a boy how I'd wander and enjoy[00:00:11]
I'd watch the trains as they'd go by[00:00:16]
And the whistle's lonely sound[00:00:21]
You could hear for miles around[00:00:24]
As they rolled across that Greenville trestle high[00:00:26]
But the whistles don't sound like they used to[00:00:31]
Lately not many trains go by hard times across the land[00:00:37]
Mean no work for the railroad man[00:00:44]
And the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high[00:00:47]
On the river bank I'd stand[00:01:13]
With a cane pole in my hand[00:01:15]
Watch the freight trains up against the sky[00:01:17]
With black smoke trailing back as they moved along the track[00:01:22]
That runs across that Greenville trestle high[00:01:27]
But the whistles don't sound like they used to[00:01:33]
Lately not many trains go by hard times across this land[00:01:38]
Mean no work for the railroad man[00:01:45]
And the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high[00:01:48]
When the lonesome whistles wind[00:02:33]
I get rambling on my mind[00:02:35]
Lord I wish they still sounded that way[00:02:38]
As I turned to head for home lord she'd rumble low and long[00:02:43]
Towards the sunset at the close of day[00:02:48]
No the whistles don't sound like they used to[00:02:53]
Lately not many trains go by hard times across the land[00:02:58]
Mean no work for the railroad man[00:03:06]
And the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high[00:03:08]
No the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high[00:03:13]
