Texas Trilogy- Train Ride |
Well, the last time I remember |
That train stopping at the depot |
Was when me and my Aunt Veta |
Came riding back from Waco |
I remember I was wearing |
My long pants and we was sharing |
Conversation with a man |
Who sold ball-point pens and paper |
And the train stopped once in Clifton |
Where my Aunt bought me some ice cream |
And my Mom was there to meet us |
When the train pulled into Kopperl |
But now kids at night break window lights |
And the sound of trains only remains |
In the memory of the ones like me |
Who have turned their backs on the splintered cracks |
In the walls that stand on the railroad land |
Where we used to play and then run away |
From the depot man |
I remember me and brother |
Used to run down to the depot |
Just to listen to the whistle |
When the train pulled into Kopperl |
And the engine big and shiny |
Black as coal that fed the fire |
And the engineer would smile and say |
«Howdy, how ya fellows?» |
And the people by the windows |
Playing cards and reading papers |
Looked as far away to us |
As next summer’s school vacation |
