Play a train song
By: Todd Snider
Intro: G D Em C
GSmokin long black Cadillac, Dengine’s 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 you’rGe hotter than the hinges
hanDgin off the gates of hell
EmDon’t be afraid to turn to me babyC 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
EmMake’em leave my boots on on thCe day they lay me down
I am a Grunaway lDocomotive Gout of my one track Cmind
And I’Gm lookin for any kind oDf trouble that I caGn 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 ID’ve got walk oGr until I got tCo crawl
At this Gmoment that I’m in right now anDd nothin else aGt all
Chorus:
GPlay a train song, Dpour me one more round
EmMake’em leave my boots on on thCe day they lay me down
I am a Grunaway lDocomotive Gout of my one track Cmind
And I’Gm lookin for any kind oDf trouble that I caGn 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 made’em leave his boots on on thCe day they laid him down
He was a Grunaway Dlocomotive Gout of his one track Cmind
