Trains Don't Run Here Anymore

Trains Don’t run here anymore


The steel rails are there on the ground
Just like the day they layed them through our town
Theres a stop in front of the ole general store
But trains don’t run here anymore

Chorus
They say when they left
Was the death of our town
And it wasn’t too long after
They closed that saw mill down
A train carried my cousin home
When he died in the war
But Trains don’t run here anymore


I remember walking on the rail
and running hard when we heard the whistle whail
crushing pennies on the track down by the river shore
but trains don’t run here anymore



Every time i look down that track
I think of days that aint coming back
I like to hear that engine and run to my front door
But trains don’t run here anymore

Chorus
