Smoke Along the Track

One day the train was passin' I caught it crawlin' by To look this old world over under God's blue sky My darling stood there weeping as I was looking back I kissed my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track Goodbye so long until I come back home you'll be my dream Goodbye so long there's lots of places that I've never seen I'll always be a drifter but I'll be driftin' back To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track I like to keep on goin' it helps me when I'm blue I get the urge to travel that's all I want to do I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam And when I hear that whistle blow I've gotta move along Goodbye so long there's something down the track keeps calling me Goodbye so long I guess that's just the way I'll always be So when I get that feeling don't try to hold me back I'll only leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track I know my baby loves me I love my baby too But she don't understand me when I'm feeling blue And when I hear that whistle blow I hurry home and pack And leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track Goodbye so long I hate to leave you but I've gotta go Goodbye so long it's coming now just heard that whistle blow It'll be here in a minute you'll wave and I'll look back I'm gonna leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track --- Smoke Along the Track - Stonewall Jackson
