Smokestack Lightning Lyrics by Marty O’Reilly & the Old Soul Orchestra

Pray For Rain

0

The train that I ride on, she's sixteen coaches long
Yeah, the train that I ride on, well, she's sixteen coaches long
Yeah, her smokestack lightning, well, she shines just like gold
Yeah, her smokestack lightning, well, she shines just like gold
Yeah, can't you hear me crying
Can't you hear me crying
Can't you hear me crying
Got to stop that train
Let this poor boy ride
You got to stop that train
Let this poor boy ride
Yeah, smokestack lightning
Won't you tell me who stayed here last night
Little baby boy
Little baby boy
Smokestack lightning
Smokestack lightning
Gave me a reason to ride
Yeah, smokestack lightning
Got to stop that train
Let this poor boy ride
Yeah, smokestack lightning
Well, she shines just like gold
Yeah, can't you hear me crying
Can't you hear me crying
Can't you hear me crying
Can't you hear me crying
