Boxcars (Album Version) - Joe Ely[00:00:02]
Well I gave all my money to the banker this month[00:00:14]
Now I got no more money to spend[00:00:18]
She smiled when she saw me comin' through that door[00:00:21]
But I left she said "Come back again"[00:00:25]
I watched them lonesome boxcar wheels[00:00:28]
Turnin' down the tracks out of town[00:00:32]
And it's on that lonesome railroad track[00:00:35]
I'm gonna lay my burden down[00:00:39]
I was raised on a farm the first years of my life[00:00:48]
Life was pretty good they say[00:00:51]
I'll probably live to be some ripe ol' age[00:00:54]
If death'll just stay out of my way[00:00:58]
This world can take my money and time[00:01:01]
But it sure can't take my soul[00:01:05]
And I'm goin' down to the railroad tracks[00:01:09]
Watch them lonesome boxcars roll[00:01:12]
There's some big ol' Buicks by the Baptist church[00:01:21]
Cadillacs at the Church of Christ[00:01:24]
I parked my camel by an ol' haystack[00:01:28]
I'll be lookin' for that needle all night[00:01:31]
There ain't gonna be no radial tires[00:01:35]
Turnin' down the streets of gold[00:01:38]
I'm goin' down to the railroad tracks[00:01:42]
And watch them lonesome boxcars roll[00:01:45]
Now if you ever heard the whistle on a fast freight train[00:02:28]
Beatin' out a beautiful tune[00:02:32]
If you ever seen the cold blue railroad tracks[00:02:35]
Shinin' by the light of the moon[00:02:38]
If you ever felt the locomotive shake the ground[00:02:42]
I know you don't have to be told[00:02:45]
Why I'm goin' down to the railroad tracks[00:02:49]
And watch them lonesome boxcars roll[00:02:52]
Yeah I'm goin' down to the railroad tracks[00:03:01]
And watch them lonesome boxcars roll[00:03:04]
