House by the Train Tracks Lyrics by Alyssa Newton

Stand Up Tall

0

[Verse 1]
That whistle blew in the middle of the night
Sometimes I'd sleep one through
Sometimes it was my lullaby
Mhh, like it was tonight
That blue old room is where I did my dreaming
Got a new color back a few summers
Traded out the [?] for a queen
But when I'm here it still belongs to me
[Chorus]
Who am I?
A traveler, adventure seeker
Tryin' to prove I can make it on my own
A hard working high achiever
Yet I've come all this way to know that
Sometimes you gotta get going
But sometimes you gotta get back
So thank God I grew up in the house by the train tracks
[Verse 2]
That ice cream shop right off of South Main street
Knows me by my first name
Vendor loves to ask how I like Tennessee
I say it's still the place for me
That church across from the university
Taught me every Sunday school
And cheered me on when I was on TV
That stage is where I learned to sing
[Chorus]
Who am I?
A traveler, adventure seeker
Tryin' to prove I can make it on my own
I'm far from the bottom fader
Yet I've come all this way to know that
Sometimes you gotta get going
But sometimes you gotta get back
So thank God I grew up in the house by the train tracks
[Bridge]
No, its really not as simple as it seems
To leave and still believe in the wonder of the child I used to be
[Chorus]
Who am I?
A traveler, adventure seeker
Been tryin' to prove I can make it on my own
A sprinting ahead full steamer
Yet I've come all this way to know that
Sometimes you gotta get going
But sometimes you gotta get back
Sometimes you gotta coem home
'Cause you still need your mom and dad
So thank God I grew up in the house by the train tracks
Thank God I grew up in the house by the train tracks
