Big iron horses road across five yards bridge And me and my grandpa we watched from the ridge He knew all the trains, he'd call out each one Where they're goin' too, where they're comin' from He'd say that one's from Memphis, bound for Moline An old '97, she's from New Orleans From New York to Denver, they'd roll through this town Now those days are gone But I still hear the sound of (CHORUS) Big Iron Horses Steel turning round The sparks and the thunder As the wheels shook the ground The boxcars and the flatbeds And the whistles blowin' steam That was yesterday, now those big trains don't come anymore Now the years passed so quickly And the world had moved on And change cast her shadow as they left one by one When the last train left Avon, no one was there Guess they didn't know, guess they didn't care Now the station is empty and the train yard lies still And grandpa is gone now to St. Agnes hill Now I stand on the fire watch and as I close my eyes I see a little boy, and he's waving goodbye to the Big Iron Horses Steel turning round The sparks and the thunder As the wheels shook the ground The boxcars and flatbeds And the whistles blowin' steam That was long ago, now they live on in my dreams Big Iron Horses Steel turning round The sparks and the thunder As the wheels shook the ground The boxcars and the flatbeds And the whistles blowin' steam That was yesterday, now those big trains don't come anymore Anymore Iron Horses Big Iron Horses
