Family Rankin Orangedale Whistle Lyrics

Orangedale Whistle Lyrics

The stationmaster looked all around

Along the track both up and down

But the train could not be found

For there was neither sight or
sound

There was neither sight or sound



He walked on slowly
to the station door

like so many times before

He looked outside
into a sunshine beam

Closed his eyes and dreamed a dream

Drifted
off into a dream



The winds of change forever blow

Some
things stay and some things go

The falling rain must melt the snow

The orangedale whistle will always blow



Years ago throughout
this land

That line was laid by able men

But things are changed as
time goes by

People drive and people fly

People drive and people
fly



The stationmaster is long since gone

He faded off into
the sun

But the whistle shrill still lingers on

In the hearts of
everyone

Everyday from dusk till dawn



The winds of change
forever blow

Some things stay and some things go

The falling rain
must melt the snow

The orangedale whistle will always blow
