I'm William Callahan |
I’m William Callahan |
I used to be a ramblin' man |
I left home at seventeen |
Hopped a freight to Birmingham |
Started poor as Kentucky coal |
Lined my pockets with Denver gold |
I’ve been cold as Alaska snow |
Searching for the sun |
It was a long time ago |
I had a restless soul |
Trains come and whistles blow |
I let 'em roll |
This is my wife, Angeline |
She used to be a cajun queen |
I took her from the mayor’s son |
Bourbon Street, New Orleans |
She had a will no man could tame |
She took her chances when they came |
Left with me on a midnight train |
Searching for the sun |
It was a long time ago |
She had a restless soul |
Trains come and whistles blow |
She let 'em roll |
Trains roll, blowing steam |
Through an old man and old woman’s dreams |
We look in each other’s eyes |
There ain’t a lot that we ain’t seen |
We’d be out there running tonight |
But we’ve run the race and fought the fight |
We think we did alright |
It was a long time ago |
We had a restless soul |
Trains come and whistles blow |
We let 'em roll |
