Favorite Train Lines

"Stuck on a fuckin train in Montana!
Stuck on a fuckin train in Montana!
Up against the wall, bored outta my skull, goddamnit!"

"Goin' to Ohio...
What an awful destination.
Goin' to that cold ass motherfuckin shithole, that I'm leavin
They don't take kindly to our types
On that mistake on the lake they call Cleveland"

"On a train in montana, you can get drunk and talk to strangers. (woohoo!)
On a train in montana, you can get drunk and read a book! (YEEHAWW)
On a train in montana, you can get fuckin drunk and just... fall down a hole!
On a train in montana, you can masturbate... In a bathroom stall!"


All from Montana by The Taxpayers. Funny song.
 
(I Heard That) LONESOME WHISTLE
Recorded by Hank Williams, Sr.
Words and music by Jimmie Davis and Hank Williams, Sr.

I was [D] ridin' number nine
Headin' [G] south from Caro-[D] line
I Heard That Lone-[A7] some Whistle [D] Blow
Got in trouble had to roam
Left my [G] gal and left my [D] home
I Heard That Lone-[A7] some Whistle [D] Blow.

1st Refrain
Just a [G] kid actin' smart
I went and [D] broke my darlin's heart
I guess I was too young to [A7] know
They took me [D] off the Georgia Main
Locked me [G] to a ball and [D] chain
I Heard That Lone-[A7] some Whistle [D] Blow.

All alone I bear the shame
I'm a number not a name
I Heard That Lonesome Whistle Blow
All I do is sit and cry
When the ev'nin' train goes by
I Heard That Lonesome Whistle Blow.

2nd Refrain
I'll be locked here in this cell
Til my body's just a shell
And my hair turns whiter than snow
I'll never see that gal of mine
Lord, I'm in Georgia doin' time
I Heard That Lonesome Whistle Blow.

Hank Williams, Sr.
 
I had to put the whole song. Song is called Travel On and it's by Morning Glory.

so here we are again
sleeping under bridges in the rain
under the new sky again
i hear the rumble of the train
another city to refuse
another bout of those hopeless wandering blues

you know we've still got one more chance to lose

do what's true, true to you
don't let the world tell you what to do
there's no wrong, travel on
do what's true, true to you

another corner and it's gone
but I still got a beat up guitar to play my songs
silence here is tried & true
only falsehoods would a verbal message do
and i've got nothing left to say
one hesitation would be to waste the day
onward, onward to futures
sunny & stray

do what's true, true to you
don't let the world tell you what to do
there's no wrong, travel on
do what's true, true to you

the global money market race
upon earth it brings it's own disgrace
and we stand laughing in it's face
pledging defiance to the cutthroats & the haste
with little more to survive
as we turn our paths to the side
for those that will not walk along
the road we have only pride..
outside....

so do what's true, true to you
don't let the world tell you what to do
there's no wrong, travel on
do what's true, true to you
 
Caught a train on the fly going 45 with 38 forties in my pack.
Fought off 15 bulls in the Baldwin yard with my hands tied behind my back.
Slugs revenge.
