WAITING FOR THE EVENING TRAIN
(Bob Coltman)
Waitin' for the evening train,
Waitin' for the whistle to blow, oh,
Thinkin' maybe it's about time to get a-goin' home,
List'nin' to the wind,
Waitin' for the evenin' train to pull in.
Lookin' in the evenin' sky,
Lookin' where the sun done gone,
Lights a-goin' on in a hundred places ain't my home,
Chilly on my skin,
Waitin' for the evenin' train to pull in.
Thinkin' 'bout the things you said,
Thinkin' how your eyes done shine, oh,
Thinkin' 'bout the times, in the days that you were mine,
Kinda makes me grin,
Waitin' for the evenin' train to pull in.
Looks like it's a-getting dark,
Looks like it's a-getting cold,
Looks like it might come on to snow before long,
Collar to my chin,
Waitin' for the evenin' train to pull in.
Waitin' for the evenin' train,
Waitin' for the train to come,
Lookin' for the light, wheels'll make the nighttime hum,
Livin' in my skin,
Waitin' for the evenin' train to pull in.
