Play a train song
By: Todd Snider
Intro: G D Em C
GSmokin long black Cadillac, Dengineâs windin down
EmParked it up on the sidewalk liCke he owned the whole damn town
I'd hear him Gtalkin to some Dchick through a Gthick ghost of Csmoke
Through a Gthicker haze of southern cDomfort and coke
He'd say girl youâGre hotter than the hinges
hanDgin off the gates of hell
EmDonât be afraid to turn to me bCaby if a he don't treat you well
And by Ghe he meant Dme sGo I laughed and I shook his hCand
GHe'd laugh a little bit louder as he would Dyell up at the band
Chorus:
GPlay a train song, Dpour me one more round
EmMakeâem leave my boots on onC the day they lay me down
I am a Grunaway lDocomotive Gout of my one track Cmind
And Iâ?G?m lookin for any kinDd of trouble that IG can find
GI got this old black leather jacket, got this Dpack of Marlboro reds
I got this sEmtash here in my pocket, got these thCoughts in my own head
I got to Grun until IDâve got walGk or until I goCt to crawl
At this Gmoment that Iâm in right nowD and nothin elsGe at all
Chorus:
GPlay a train song, Dpour me one more round
EmMakeâem leave my boots on onC the day they lay me down
I am a Grunaway lDocomotive Gout of my one track Cmind
And Iâ?G?m lookin for any kinDd of trouble that IG can find
GAnd the television blizzard lights we Dlooked around his place
We found him Emcold there on the sofa a little Csmile across his face
And though I Gtried with all my Dsadness Gsomehow I could never Cweep
For a Gman who looked to me like he died Dlaughin in his sleep
Singin a Gtrain song, Ddrinkin one last round
EmWe madeâem leave his boots on onC the day they laid him down
He was a Grunaway Dlocomotive Gout of his one track Cmind
GPlay a train Csong
GPlay a train Csong
GPlay a trainD sGong
