| Headin' down this iron road
|
| These six strings on my back
|
| Must be twenty years or more
|
| Since this train roared down the track
|
| Sometimes I hear the whistle blowin'
|
| Conductor shoutin' all aboard
|
| But I’m rustin' in the stockyard
|
| Said that’s all I was good for
|
| I dream I’m heading down this iron road
|
| I dream I’m heading back
|
| I’m building up a head of steam
|
| And I’m burnin' up the track
|
| I see her wavin' from her window
|
| I’m smiling… wavin' back
|
| I don’t feel so alone
|
| I’m comin' home
|
| And it feels like the first time
|
| I’m comin' home
|
| Comin' home for the last time
|
| Stokin' up the embers
|
| I can see the fire rise
|
| Every flame burnin'
|
| Lightin' memories in her eyes
|
| All I’m asking from you is a second chance
|
| I’m comin' home
|
| And it feels like the first time
|
| I’m comin' home
|
| See the world in a new light
|
| I’m comin' home
|
| See the world in a new light
|
| I’m comin' home |
