Locomotive Painted Black (Larry W Jones 9/22/2013) (song #6753) Locomotive painted black, rolling down the railroad track Did you see just where she stepped off Would you keep silent if she scoffed Her new carpet bag she carried She and I were getting married Her vows to me of love I hope she hasn’t taken back Locomotive painted black, rolling down the railroad track She boarded back in Tennessee Your train is empty as can be Now, it wasn’t that long a ride She should be here right by my side I must confide to you that my pride is starting to crack (instrumental) Oh, I clued her in about how intruders win at hearts She may have found a new romance Sometimes that happens with a glance And just like locomotive fire That look can strike a new desire Wish she were here at the station instead of unknown parts Locomotive painted black, rolling down the railroad track She boarded back in Tennessee Your train is empty as can be Now, it wasn’t that long a ride She should be here right by my side I must confide to you that my pride is starting to crack She boarded back in Tennessee Your train is empty as can be Kingwood Kowboy
