Station Man (LP版) - Martin Sexton (马丁·赛斯通)[00:00:00]
Down around the reservation[00:00:15]
Up around the bend[00:00:17]
Lies a lazy little ghost town[00:00:19]
In a god forsaken land[00:00:22]
Set up on the platform[00:00:27]
Wringing his hands[00:00:30]
Humming a crazy old number[00:00:32]
Its the station man[00:00:34]
He sings about sweet Virginia[00:00:53]
Sweetest in the land[00:00:55]
Said she'd come on back for me[00:00:57]
Just soon as she can[00:00:59]
And the rusty track laughs[00:01:05]
A cold phrase in the sun[00:01:07]
You see the last train left here 1971[00:01:14]
I can still hear the children[00:01:36]
On the fourth of July[00:01:38]
Down at the general store[00:01:40]
There was a gas pump[00:01:41]
And the church bells that ring on Sunday[00:01:42]
Then he turns his head on easterly[00:01:48]
Raises his hand[00:01:51]
Pointing his shaky finger[00:01:53]
As he tries to take a stand[00:01:55]
U S highway number[00:02:00]
One hundred twenty three[00:02:03]
Laid concrete and steel[00:02:10]
Where my house used to be[00:02:13]
I can still hear those children[00:02:32]
Singing in the schoolyard[00:02:34]
Lemonade on the back porch[00:02:37]
As the sun went down[00:02:39]
Rocking chair and my memories[00:02:44]
Sold them for chump change[00:02:46]
Sold them off to folks like you coming around[00:02:48]
