VERSE 1
When I was just a young boy
Watched my daddy hop a train
Followed him to the railroad tracks
By the riverside in the rain
Fixed my eyes on my old
As the smoke poured from the stack
Memory left a hole in my heart
Daddy never came back
CHORUS
Walking the railroad track blues
Walking the railroad track blues
So many times I asked God why
Watched that train disappear on the tracks
Walking the railroad track blues
Daddy never came back
(Instrumental)
(CHORUS
Walking the railroad track blues
Walking the railroad track blues
So many times I asked God why
Watched that train disappear on the tracks
Walking the railroad track blues
Daddy never came back
VERSE 2
Sometimes there ain't no rhyme or reason
Crazy world do the best you can
Countless time I walked those tracks
As a young boy and a man
Every time I hear that whistle blow
Daddy's ghost whispers in my ear
Son please forgive me you ain't to blame
Daddy I still love you let go of your shame
CHORUS
Walking the railroad track blues
Walking the railroad track blues
So many times I asked God why
Watched that train disappear on the tracks
Walking the railroad track blues
Daddy never came back
REPEAT CHORUS
