Central Pacific |
Sun went careening |
Over the ceiling |
And crashed onto the plains |
Set fire to the amber waves of grain |
The moon it dances |
Over acres and fences |
And waltzes down into the water |
Sounds like the ring that I bought her |
There’s a gal |
In California |
I’ll see her when I get off this rail |
Sent her one last letter in the mail |
Will you wait for me |
By the blue oak tree? |
Will you marry me? |
I know I’ve been gone |
And this rail road’s long |
But I built it for to carry you a ring |
Twelve hour days |
For minimum wage |
And I’ll carry every penny back to Sacramento |
This black chariot will let me swing home |
Just a railroad man |
With railroad hands |
And I built this track to build you a home |
I just built you a place to be alone |
All the way to promontory |
I wrote a lovers' story |
And I’m comin' back for to fulfill |
The promises my letters did reveal |
Will you wait for me |
By the blue oak tree? |
Will you marry me? |
I know I’ve been gone |
And this rail road’s long |
But I built it for to carry you a ring |
Will you wait for me |
By the blue oak tree? |
Will you marry me? |
I know I’ve been gone |
And this rail road’s long |
But I built it for to carry you a ring |
But I built it for to carry you a ring |
But I built it for to carry you a ring |
