05 Aug 07 - 02:56 PM (#2119828) Subject: LYR ADD: I Like Trains by Fred Eaglesmith From: Cluin Great pics, sapper. Here's a song for ya: I Like Trains Fred Eaglesmith Sixteen miles from Arkadelphia, right near the Texas border Traffic was stopped at a railway crossing I took it to the shoulder I stoked the kettle, I put it to the metal, I shook the gravel loose I missed the train but I was happy with A glimpse of the caboose `Cause I like trains I like fast trains I like trains That call out through the rain I like trains I like sad trains I like trains That whisper your name I was born on a Greyhound bus; my mama was a diesel engine They tried to put me behind the wheel But I wouldn't let them You should have seen the look in their eyes and how it turned to tears When I finally told them I wanna be an engineer (chorus) Now, you think that I got someone new But darlin', that ain't true I could never love another Woman, besides you `Cause it's not some dewy eyed darlin', darlin' That's gonna drive you insane Not anymore, but I'd be listening for The sound of a big ol' train (chorus) I like trains That whisper... That whisper your name |

Like Kermit the frog I am croaking With longing for such beauty and peace Especially with someone who's folking! Now can you throw in John Cleese? Arrgghhh...well what did you expect for spur of the moment rhyming?**BG** Love the photos, esp. the Finnan viaduct ones, almost a sepia tone, there's one which looks like an ancient postcard...just lovely! Thanks for sharing! You may see some of Western Colorado on myopera page...just Click Here. |

My messages get et about once a week. I like the photos, Sapper - especially the trains. Tobermory reminds me somewhat of Tobermory in Ontario, the terminal for the ferry that cuts across the entrance to Georgian Bay on Lake Huron. Any lighthouses in the area? Maybe the person who named the Ontario town noticed a resemblance, too. -Joe- |
