Erie Lackawanna |
| This is the room where they were born |
| All of the kids grown up so long now |
| And if I’m quiet, I can hear them fight |
| The only real sound is that whistling train at night |
| It’s the only thing that has stayed the same |
| The lonely whine of a New York train |
| Used to hear it coming for me in dreams |
| But now it just sings me to sleep, it seems |
| I can hear a wrecking ball coming for the house |
| See a wrecking ball gonna tear it down |
| In this kitchen, we would laugh and sing |
| Now I eat alone at Burger King |
| My wife used to come home and cook the meals |
| Now my daughter comes weekly to feed me pills |
| I can hear a wrecking ball coming for the house |
| See a wrecking ball gonna tear it down |
| I can hear a wrecking ball coming for the house |
| See a wrecking ball gonna tear it down |
| Used to run through fields to put pennies on the track |
| Now it’s just big houses with pools out back |
| They’ll bulldoze this house when I am gone |
| And no one will be here to sing that old train song |
| I can hear a wrecking ball coming for the house |
| See a wrecking ball gonna tear it down |
| I can hear a wrecking ball coming for the house |
| See a wrecking ball gonna tear it down |
| I can hear a wrecking ball coming for the house |
| See a wrecking ball gonna tear it down |
