Harris Emmylou - Smoke Along The Track lyrics

One day the train was passin'

I caught it comin' by

To look this old world over under God's blue sky

My darlin' stood there weepin' 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 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 callin' me

Goodbye so long I guess that's just the way I'll always be

So when I get that feelin' don't try to hold me back

I'd only leave you crying in that smoke along the track

I know my baby loves me I love my baby too

But he don't understand me when I'm feelin' 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 got to go

Goodbye, so long, It's coming down just hear 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.

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

To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track
