Texas 1947 - Guy Clark[00:00:00]

Now bein' six years old I had seen some trains before [00:00:01]

So it's hard to figure out what I'm at the depot for [00:00:06]

Trains are big and black and smokin' - steam screamin' at the wheels [00:00:10]

Bigger than anything they is at least that's the way she feels[00:00:15]

Trains are big and black and smokin' louder'n July four [00:00:20]

But everybody's actin' like this might be somethin' more [00:00:25]

than just pickin' up the mail or the soldiers from the war [00:00:29]

This is somethin' that even old man Wileman never seen before [00:00:34]

And it's late afternoon on a hot Texas day [00:00:38]

Somethin' strange is goin' on and we's all in the way [00:00:43]

Well there's fifty or sixty people they're just sittin' on their cars [00:00:49]

And the old men left their dominos and they come down from the bars [00:00:53]

Everybody's checkin' old Jack Kittrel check his watch [00:00:58]

And us kids put our ears to the rails to hear 'em pop [00:01:03]

So we already knowed it when they finally said 'train time'[00:01:07]

You'd a-thought that Jesus Christ his-self was rollin' down the line [00:01:12]

'Cause things got real quiet momma jerked me back [00:01:16]

But not before I'd got the chance to lay a nickel on the track [00:01:21]

Look out here she comes she's comin' [00:01:26]

Look out there she goes she's gone [00:01:28]

Screamin' straight through Texas[00:01:30]

Like a mad dog cyclone [00:01:32]

Big red and silver [00:01:35]

She don't make no smoke [00:01:37]

She's a fast-rollin' streamline[00:01:39]

Come to show the folks [00:01:41]

Look out here she comes she's comin'[00:01:43]

Look out there she goes she's gone [00:01:46]

Screamin' straight through Texas[00:01:48]

Like a mad dog cyclone [00:01:50]

Lord she never even stopped [00:01:52]

She left fifty or sixty people still sittin' on their cars [00:02:05]

And they're wonderin' what it's comin' to[00:02:10]

And how it got this far [00:02:12]

Oh but me I got a nickel smashed flatter than a dime[00:02:14]

By a mad dog runaway red-silver streamline train[00:02:19]

Look out here she comes she's comin' [00:02:24]

Look out there she goes she's gone [00:02:25]

Screamin' straight through Texas[00:02:28]

Like a mad dog cyclone [00:02:29]

Big red and silver [00:02:32]

She don't make no smoke [00:02:34]

She's a fast-rollin' streamline[00:02:36]

Come to show the folks [00:02:39]

Look out here she comes she's comin'[00:02:41]

Look out there she goes she's gone [00:02:43]

Screamin' straight through Texas[00:02:45]

Like a mad dog cyclone[00:02:47]
