Ghost Trains - Hank Snow[00:00:00]
It was early in the fall and a blowin' up a squall[00:00:04]
From the trestle you could hear the weirdest moans[00:00:08]
With a mighty lonesome cry came a whistle from the sky[00:00:13]
And it chilled the very marrow in my bones[00:00:18]
Then a loud rushing roar like you never heard before[00:00:22]
Turned the blood to icy water in my veins[00:00:27]
As I watched with rising fear[00:00:31]
Something strange was drawing near[00:00:34]
And I saw in the clouds ghost trains[00:00:36]
(Ghost trains ghost trains what a fearful sight)[00:00:41]
The Cannonball and No nine were racing through the night[00:00:45]
Just as they passed me by I heard the engineer cry[00:00:50]
Giver her coal give her coal shovel it on[00:00:54]
You could see the fireman grinnin'[00:00:59]
In the engine that was winnin'[00:01:02]
But I knew before the finish they'd be gone[00:01:04]
(Well he knew before the finish they'd be gone)[00:01:09]
You could see the drivers roll as they shoveled on the coal[00:01:14]
And the black smoke came pouring from the stacks[00:01:18]
As they thundered through the sky I am here to testify[00:01:23]
You could hear the wheel a clickin' on the tracks[00:01:28]
Through the smoke and the steam[00:01:33]
You could see the headlights gleam[00:01:35]
Now I have no proof but still the fact remains[00:01:37]
You may doubt it but I swear there were cinders in my hair[00:01:42]
When I saw in the clouds ghost trains[00:01:47]
(Ghost trains ghost trains what a fearful sight)[00:01:52]
The Cannonball and No nine were racing through the night[00:01:56]
Just as they passed me by I heard the engineer cry[00:02:01]
Giver her coal give her coal shovel it on[00:02:06]
You could see the fireman grinnin'[00:02:10]
In the engine that was winnin'[00:02:13]
As I watched I saw them fade into the dawn[00:02:15]
(As he watched he saw them fade into the dawn)[00:02:22]
