Iron Road - Old 97's[00:00:00]

Hundred lists of reasons I keep 'round[00:00:14]

Why I never had a family[00:00:19]

Why I couldn't settle down[00:00:22]

Why I'd sooner in the mirror see a hobo lookin' low[00:00:24]

But the reasons now escape me as I walk the iron road[00:00:30]

Like a lot of kids I left my boyhood home[00:00:37]

Worked a little on the railroad Worked a little travelin' on[00:00:43]

Til the closest that I ever got to an address or a phone[00:00:49]

Was the day I spent my last two bits on a one page letter home[00:00:55]

At 21 my arches lay down flat[00:01:02]

22 I started takin' loans[00:01:08]

But if the train will come I'll wipe the box car dirt from off my bones[00:01:13]

And I'll curse the wheels that roll me roll me down that iron road[00:01:19]

Iron road iron road you'll never give up the gold[00:01:49]

I spent 24 hours today lookin' back and feelin' low[00:02:00]

24 hours of lookin' back can kill you I've been told[00:02:06]

At 60 my dad left that boyhood town[00:02:13]

Within a year our mother followed him to higher ground[00:02:18]

And I'll be next to join 'em soon as I see that engine roll[00:02:24]

Gonna lay my head on the railroad bed and leave that iron road[00:02:32]

Gonna lay my head on the railroad bed and leave that iron road[00:02:37]

At 21 my arches lay down flat[00:02:44]

22 I started takin' loans[00:02:50]

But if the train will come I'll wipe the box car dirt from off my bones[00:02:56]

And I'll curse the wheels that roll me roll me down that iron road[00:03:02]
