Текст песни: Passing Of The Train + перевод

Way back when it all began

With muscle, wood and steel

Mighty man tamed the land

With a horse that rode on wheels;

It broke the heart of the red man

And made a name for Jesse James;

A mark was left forever

By the passing of the train

As a little child my thoughts ran wild

As I clung to Mama’s dress

As the train grew near the engineer

Waved my fears to rest;

He tipped his hat and pulled the cord

And blew a long refrain-

Around midnight I’d be dreaming

Of the passing of the train

Clickety clack heating up the track

Can’t you hear that whistle scream?

She’s a’letting you know just how she feels

With a belly full of steam

All aboard who’s going aboard

It’ll never be the same

It’s a downright lonesome feeliing

With the passing of the train

That old caboose, they cut it loose

And they ain’t gonna bring it back

It sits beside the towns that died

Along a million miles of track

We’re always late when we get there

So we’d sooner hop a plane

But anyone who’s heard that whistle

Mourns the passing of the train

Clickety clack heating up the track

Can’t you hear that whistle scream?

She’s a’letting you know just how she feels

With a belly full of steam

All aboard who’s going aboard

It’ll never be the same

It’s a downright lonesome feeling

With the passing of the train

All aboard who’s going aboard

It’ll never be the same

It’s a downright lonesome feeling

With the passing of the train
