Station Man |
Down around the reservation |
Up around the bend |
Lies a lazy little ghost town |
In a god forsaken land |
Set up on the platform |
Wringing his hands |
Humming a crazy old number |
Its the station man |
He sings about sweet Virginia |
Sweetest in the land |
Said she’d come on back for me |
Just soon as she can |
And the rusty track laughs a cold phrase in the sun |
You see the last train left here 1971 |
I can still hear the children on the fourth of July |
Down at the general store there was a gas pump |
And the church bells that ring on Sunday |
Then he turns his head on easterly |
Raises his hand |
Pointing his shaky finger |
As he tries to take a stand |
U.S. highway number one hundred twenty three |
Laid concrete and steel where my house used to be |
I can still hear those children |
Singing in the schoolyard |
Lemonade on the back porch |
As the sun went down |
Rocking chair and my memories |
Sold them for chump change |
Sold them off to folks like you coming around |
