Watching the Train Go By (words & music by Roy Evan Burstiner)

I’ve been living 50 years in this town

Every day and night

Working the farm til the harvest is down

Watching that train go by

Meals for my wife and kids is that all I ask

Working that family life

Sweating all day to the labor’s task

Watching that train go by

Watching the train go by, morning, noon, & night

Working the land til my blood runs dry

Watching the train go by

Working the fields like my daddy did

Learned his lessons right

Blisters on my hands til the sun goes down

Watching the train go by

Watching the train go by, morning, noon, & night

Working the land til my blood runs dry

Watching the train go by

Watching the train go by, morning, noon, & night

Working the land til my blood runs dry

Watching the train go by

Working the fields like my daddy did

I Learned his lessons right

Blisters on my hands til the sun goes down

Watching the train go by

I’ve been living 50 years in this town

Every day and night

Working the farm til the harvest is down

Watching that train go by
