lyrics
I saw a man on the rails
He'd been riding for years
just killing the pain
with the train and the beers
He was singing a song
it was simple and sad
about the places he'd known
the friends that he'd had
It went:
Ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay
Passing the boneyard
by the old turnpike
heavy memories
and rusted railspikes
on the Erie line
Lackawana below
just singing his song
bout the sorrows hes known
It went:
Ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay
