The Engineer's Child - Hank Snow[00:00:00]

A little child on a sickbed lay[00:00:07]

And death was very near[00:00:13]

She was the pride and[00:00:20]

Only child of a railroad engineer[00:00:24]

His duty had called him from those[00:00:33]

He loved and seeing that hope was dim[00:00:38]

While a tear he shed to his wife[00:00:46]

He said just have two lanterns trimmed[00:00:51]

Just hang a light as I pass tonight hang it[00:01:00]

Where it can be seen[00:01:07]

If our baby's dead just show the red if[00:01:12]

She's better then show the green[00:01:19]

In a little house by the railroad track[00:01:39]

A mother with watchful eye[00:01:45]

Saw a gleam of hope[00:01:52]

And a feeble smile as the train went rushing by[00:01:55]

Just one short look was his only[00:02:05]

Chance to see the light agleam[00:02:10]

In the midnight air there arose a prayer[00:02:18]

Thank God the light was green[00:02:25]

Just hang a light[00:02:32]

As I pass tonight hang it[00:02:35]

Where it can be seen[00:02:39]

If our baby's dead just show the red[00:02:44]

If she's better then show the green[00:02:51]
