Artist/Band: George Strait
Lyrics for Song: Trains Make Me Lonesome
Lyrics for Album: Greatest Collectiom [Platinum Disc] [2004]



(Paul Overstreet - Thom Schuyler)



I was five years old when daddy started packing

And I stood there by my momma as she cried

And the next thing that we knew some old train came passing through

And daddy got on board and we ain't seen him no more.



Chorus:

Oh, oh, now I wonder why trains make me lonesome

It happens everytime that engine moans some

And when I hear that whistle blow it makes my heart sink low

And I wonder why trains make me lonesome.



It was a cold dark night when I drove her to the depot

There were tears in my eyes and a ticket in her hand

And as we stood there by those tracks I knew she wasn't coming back

So I turned and walked away but I still miss her today.



Chorus:

I wonder why trains make me lonesome

It happens everytime that engine moans some

Now, when I hear that whistle blow it makes my heart sink low

And I wonder why trains make me lonesome.



Those blocks looked like little stations

Those ink spots look like engine No. 9

And this couch on which I lay

Suppose to haul my blues away

That old pipe you keep toking

Is like an old coal engine smoking.



Chorus:

But still I wonder why trains make me lonesome

It happens everytime that engine moans some

And when I hear that whistle blow it makes my heart sink low

And I wonder why trains make me lonesome.



Oh yes, I wonder why trains make me lonesome...
