The sound of a train not running |Has been keeping me awake |The Westmore land mine ain't run much coal |Since back in '88 |Got on at the sawmill |But I've got to find a better way |Or the sound of a train not running |Is gonna carry me away ||And every time you look at me, Mary |I want to tell you someday |We'll leave the sound of a train not running |A thousand miles away ||I don't want to risk my freedom |Growing crops on company land |But it'd be a damned sight better |Than a government check in my hand |I used to bring home good money |You used to drive a decent car |But now we go to town on Saturday |It seems a little too far||Now some nights when our baby cries |I feel a twinge of fear |When the sound of a train not running |Is the only thing I hear ||And every time you look at me, Mary |I want to tell you someday |We'll leave the sound of a train not running |A thousand miles away
