Smoke Along The Track Lyrics

Smoke Along The Track

(Alan Rose, Don Helms)

 

 One day the train was passing, I caught it comin' by

 To look this old world over, under God's blue sky

 My darlin' stood there weepin' as I was lookin' back

 I kissed my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track

 

 Chorus:

 Bye, bye, so long, there's something down the track

 It's callin' me

 Bye, bye, so long, I guess that's just the way

 I'll always be

 Now when I get this feelin'

 Don't try to hold me back

 I'll only leave you cryin'

 In the smoke along the track

 

 I like to keep on goin', it helps me when I'm blue

 I get the urge to travel, that's all I want to do

 I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam

 And when I hear that whistle blow I gotta move along

 

 Chorus:

 Bye, bye, so long, there's something down the track

 It's callin' me

 Bye, bye, so long, I guess that's just the way

 I'll always be

 Now when I get this feelin'

 Don't try to hold me back

 I'll only leave you cryin'

 In the smoke along the track

 

 I know my baby loves me, I love my baby too

 But she don't understand me when I'm feelin' blue

 And when I hear that whistle blow I hurry home to pack

 And kiss my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track

 

 Chorus:

 Bye, bye, so long, there's something down the track

 It's callin' me

 Bye, bye, so long, I guess that's just the way

 I'll always be

 Now when I get this feelin'

 Don't try to hold me back

 I'll only leave you cryin'

 In the smoke along the track
