C.R.F. (Retired) |
| Sigh’s sitting pretty on the highline out of Minnie |
| And old Rudy’s down the ACL |
| I couldn’t even catch a hopper out of Bonedry clean |
| Just to get to Charlottesville |
| Quiet Yankee’s out in California rubber tramping |
| And NOVA’s down in New Orleans |
| Oh, Mr. Twitty’s wintered up in Portland or something |
| And Ziplock’s in Philly |
| And I’m stuck back here in Richmond |
| Dropping Markals on the main |
| Leaving all these messages |
| So they know I think of them |
| I got one hand on the ladder |
| I got the other lending the fire |
| I got one side bent on keeping on |
| And the other on retiring |
| Tried the Chicken Shit Express against Camp Deluxe come on |
| Every train just blew right past |
| Fuck the west, A wye and the ACCA bridge throat |
| I’m dodging car knockers as they pass |
| Got a signal light called for restricted for once |
| And a grainer riding dirty face |
| Til the bull’s headlights came a creeping and lurking |
| And they chased me right from that train |
| And I’m walking back from South Side |
| With my head held low in shame |
| Eating all my train food |
| Just four miles from where I came |
| I got one hand on the ladder |
| I got the other lending the fire |
| I got one side bent on keeping on |
| And the other on retiring |
| And I’m stuck back here in Richmond |
| Dropping Markals on the main |
| Leaving all these messages |
| So they know I think of them |
| I got one hand on the ladder |
| I got the other lending the fire |
| I got one side bent on keeping on |
| And the other on retiring |
