Bloodline |
In the eyes of the old ones |
Who watched from a distance |
It was a devilish magic at best |
But the hearts of the children |
Were filled with excitement |
As they dreamed of their house in the West |
Oh the engine would fire the black smoke would rise |
Thru the spray of the slick silver steam |
It was something of wonder that steel plated thunder |
That moved the American dream |
That moved the American dream |
I can hear the sleepy whistle blowin' |
I can see the spark beneath the wheels |
As the leaves the hills behind her |
For the ragged cotton fields |
In a dusty one-house station |
All the children grow impatient |
As they stare into the distance for a sign |
Here she comes can’t you hear her whistle whine |
Here she comes rollin' in my bloodline |
Running' in my bloodline |
Old man Grady waves his lantern |
«All on board» I hear him cry |
While Lucius stokes the cinder |
And wipes the coal dust from his eyes |
Yes she was prowd and full of fire |
As she road that silver wire |
>From the Kansas Plains to the great Sierra Pine |
Here she comes can’t you hear the whistle whine |
Here she comes rollin' in right on time |
I can feel her she’s runnin' in my bloodline |
Runnin' in my bloodline |
Here she comes |
Now the stockyards are empty |
The steel rails are rusted |
They belong to the wind and the sand |
But we long will remember |
The steel and the timber |
And the pulse that once beat thru this land |
Oh the engine would fire the black smoke would rise |
Thru the spray of the slick silver steam |
It was something of wonder that steel plated thunder |
That moved the American dream |
That moved the American dream |
The American dream |
Dream |
