Railroad

Your mother don't cry

Your daddy don't go

The spies don't let the government know

The water don't rise

Living on the railroad

Your brother don't lie

Your lover don't cheat

The ground won't fall

From under your feet and the wind don't blow

Livin on the railroad

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad

Your color don't fade

Your sorrow don't show

The shadow don't follow wherever you go

The butter don't melt livin' on the railroad

Your cards don't lose

Your brakes don't fail

The rain comes down to cover your trail

But the wind don't blow living on the railroad

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad

Thunder, lightening,

Stealing, fighting

Crashing, cryin, breakin', dyin',

Failing, fallin', lyin'

Greed

These are the things I never see

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad
