"Railroad Man" lyrics
"Railroad Man"
I feel like an old railroad man
Ridin' out on the Bluemont line
Hummin' along old dominion blues
Not much to see and not much left to lose
And I know I can walk along the tracks
It may take a little longer
But I'll know how to find my way back
I feel like an old railroad man
Who's really tried the best that he can
To make his life add up to something good
But this engine no longer burns on wood
And I guess I may never understand
The times that I live in
Are not made for a railroad man
I feel like an old railroad man
Getting on board at the end of an age
The station's empty and the whistle blows
Things are faster now and this train is just too slow
And I know I can walk along the tracks
It may take a little longer
But I'll know how to find my way back
Thanks to deftonesfool37 for adding these lyrics.

Suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw

Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But...
Gomez - "Whippin' Piccadilly" Once upon a time, not too long ago
We took a day out in Manchester
We all fall down
There's not enough hours in a day
Played a bit of football, fell into the union
Barged our way into the toilet...
Elvis Costello and The Attractions - "Alison" Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.
And with the way you look I understand
that you are not impressed.
But I heard you let that little friend of mine
take off your party dress.
