Smoke Along the Track - Live

Lyrics

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
 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 seem to settle down because I like to roam
 When I hear that whistle blow I 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'd only leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track
 ♪
 I know my baby loves me, I love my baby too
 He don't understand me when I'm feeling blue
 When I hear that whistle blow I hurry home and pack
 Leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track
 Goodbye, so long, I hate to leave you but I 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
 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
 Oh, I'm gonna leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track

 Thank you, God bless you all
 You're terrific
