Son Of A Railroad Man (Larry W. Jones 02/29/2008) (song#5319)

Well, I’m the son of a railroad man
Son of a railroad man
I’ve ridden rails all across this land
Yeah, I’m the son of a railroad man

Well, my Daddy was a railroad man
Folks knew him from far away
He could be gentle or tough as nails
Yeah, my Daddy was a railroad man
Along mountains, plains and bay
And his tales were as long as the rails

Well, I’m the son of a railroad man
Son of a railroad man
I’ve ridden rails all across this land
Yeah, I’m the son of a railroad man

– instrumental –

Now, I was born by the great divide
Where the mountains reached the sky
The railroad could never be denied
So I learned railroading from my Dad
Only way of life I had
I’ll be railroading until I die

Well, I’m the son of a railroad man
Son of a railroad man
I’ve ridden rails all across this land
Yeah, I’m the son of a railroad man
