Testi musica canzoni

Jan would climb up so high on the foul screen

Down below I would yell to watch out

When we'd play ? was always the winner

He was brave never listened to me shout

Afternoons playin' ball by the old wall

Hidin' out and of course be the star

Kept my records in old looseleaf notebooks

And today I think I still know where they are

Oh, Railroad days

Railroad days

Railroad days

When I was young, in my prime

On my way

When the rain never got in my way

oh in my younger railroad days

Some nights, Drifters playin' on the hi-fi

Talkin' 'bout girls, or preposterous lies

Laughin hard, watchin' Soupy at eleven

Skonkin' down, one of Mom's lemon pies

Ten o'clock, bringin' groceries from the market

Singin songs, to the darkness of the night

Even sang the parts the instruments were playing

Life was freer, dreams were really quite all
right

Oh, Railroad days

Railroad days

Railroad days

When the sun seemed to smile on it's way

When the darkness was easier to play yeah

oh in my younger railroad days

Yesterday, I heard they shut the trains down

The ones than ran, by the field where I would
play

Said the folks want new and faster transportation

It's just like me, I'll be obsolete one day

Oh, Railroad days

Railroad days

Railroad days

When I was young, in my prime

On my way

When the rain never got in my way

oh in my younger railroad days
