Empire Builder |
| All day, everyday |
| I swing my hammer to the metal on the northern railway |
| Always a movie playing in my head |
| A million movies starring you and me |
| Moonshine every night |
| Eating supper by the fire out in the clear moonlight |
| Ankles crossed, hands behind my head |
| Telling stories, singing songs about the west |
| I’m always thinking of you |
| Staring off down the railroad line |
| One sweet day i will see you |
| But i’ll swing the hammer until |
| The empire builder brings me home |
| For two months and two odd weeks |
| Sometimes days go by in which nobody speaks |
| From illinois to washington |
| There ain’t nothing but the hammer to the rail |
| One day when this track runs through |
| I’m gonna buy a new suit and come looking for you |
| Care free, you and me |
| We’ll take the empire builder to the sea |
| And i’m always thinking of you |
| Staring off down the railroad line |
| One sweet day i will see you |
| But i’ll swing the hammer until |
| The empire builder brings me home |
