Railroad Man - Guitavio[00:00:00]
Written by:E.Boeteführ[00:00:34]
My daddy was a railroad man[00:01:08]
He was poor but true[00:01:12]
He laid down track lines throughout this land[00:01:15]
For me and you[00:01:19]
The tracks he laid stand strong this day[00:01:22]
Stood the test of time[00:01:25]
From New York to San Francisco bay[00:01:29]
You can ride the line[00:01:33]
Railroad man[00:01:37]
Laying down the tracks[00:01:39]
Railroad man he's gone won't be coming back[00:01:40]
Railroad man[00:01:44]
Laying down the tracks[00:01:45]
Railroad man he's gone won't be coming back[00:01:47]
The train lines he built cut through this town[00:01:56]
North and south divide[00:02:00]
The rich up there while the poor are down[00:02:03]
The gap is so wide[00:02:07]
He built this country with blood and toil[00:02:10]
He cared not for praise[00:02:14]
Today's false heroes make my blood boil[00:02:17]
These are such strange days[00:02:20]
Railroad man[00:02:25]
They turned their backs[00:02:26]
Railroad man on the wrong side of the tracks[00:02:28]
Railroad man[00:02:32]
They turned their backs[00:02:33]
Railroad man on the wrong side of the tracks[00:02:35]
They pin medals on sheep and dogs[00:02:41]
In some fancy parade[00:02:44]
Then paint the heroes face on dolls and troggs[00:02:48]
Their agent makes sure they get paid[00:02:51]
My daddy was a hard working man[00:03:53]
He did all he could[00:03:56]
Rejected and spat out by this land[00:04:00]
To me he was good[00:04:04]
He died in some ditch a broken man[00:04:06]
As the train roared by[00:04:10]
No one cared that he helped build this land[00:04:15]
A bottle by his side[00:04:18]
Railroad man[00:04:23]
Lying by the tracks[00:04:25]
Railroad man is gone won't be coming back[00:04:27]
Railroad man[00:04:30]
Lying by the tracks[00:04:32]
Railroad man is gone won't be coming back[00:04:33]
Railroad man[00:04:37]
Lying by the tracks[00:04:39]
Railroad man is gone won't be coming back[00:04:40]
Railroad man[00:04:44]
Lying by the tracks[00:04:45]
Railroad man is gone won't be coming back[00:04:47]
Won't be coming back[00:04:54]
Won't be coming back[00:05:00]
