Testo Railroad Lady - Merle Haggard & The Strangers
Testo della canzone Railroad Lady (Merle Haggard & The Strangers), tratta dall'album My Love Affair with Trains
She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady
Spending her days on the train
She's a semi-good looker, but the fast rails, they took her
Now she's trying, just trying to get home again
South Station in Boston to the stockyards of Austin
From the Florida sunshine to the New Orleans rain
Now that the rail packs have taken the best tracks
She's trying, just trying to get home again
She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady
Spending her days on the train
She's a semi-good looker, but the fast rails, they took her
Now she's trying, just trying to get home again
Once a high-balling loner thought he could own her
He bought her a fur coat and a big diamond ring
But she hocked him for cold cash, left town on the Wabash
Never thinking, never thinking of home way back then
But the rails are now rusty, the dining car's dusty
The gold-plated watches have taken their toll
The railroads are dying and the lady is crying
On a bus to Kentucky and home, that's her goal
She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady
Spending her days on the train
Once a Pullman car traveler, now the brakeman won't have her
She's trying, just trying to get home again
On a bus to Kentucky and home once again
