Boxcar On The Outbound (Larry W. Jones 07/29/2008) (song#5648)

Beside the train tracks I was born
The wild geese call was so forlorn
When they called to me with their song
Come and go with us your life long
A boxcar on the outbound is my home

It breaks my heart to see you cry
Oh how I hate to say goodbye
I’m sorry for my wayward song
But like the wild geese, I must roam
A boxcar on the outbound is my home

It’s just my way to try and find
Some far off place I’ve never been
And I can’t face the ties that bind
Although our friendship will now end
An outbound train just rolled around the bend

– instrumental –

It breaks my heart to see you cry
Oh how I hate to say goodbye
I’m sorry for my wayward song
But like the wild geese, I must roam
A boxcar on the outbound is my home

The call for love’s inside of me
But lasting love will never be
A train just passed like geese that roam
I’m sorry for my wayward song
A boxcar on the outbound is my home

I’m sorry for my wayward song
A boxcar on the outbound is my home
