CRYSTAL CHANDELIERS AND BURGUNDY
(Jack Wesley Routh)
« © '74 Song Of Cash »

This boxcar's been my home since San Antone
Cause this ankle of mine I turned while hoppin' on
Shoots pain that feeds my dreams with luxuries I see
Crystal chandeliers and burgundy

I can feel my mother's heartbeat from the track
It's the rhythm of a son that won't be back
Lord knows where my mind is takin' me
I see crystal chandeliers and burgundy

If that conductor only knew
All the trouble I've been through
Just to be here on this train once again

Freedom of a hobo ain't so bad
You can dream of all the wealth you might've had
I guess livin' on this train is gettin' to me
I see crystal chandeliers and burgundy

[ ac.guitar ]

If that conductor only knew
All the trouble I've been through
Just to be here on this train once again

If there's nothing in this world I've gotta do
But to ride these rails of steel my whole life through
Then take away these visions that I see
Of crystal chandeliers and burgundy

Of crystal chandeliers and burgundy,
Of crystal chandeliers and burgundy
