Krauss Alison Steel Rails Lyrics

Steel Rails Lyrics

CHORUS

 Steel Rails, chasin' sunshine 'round the bend

 Windin' through the trees like a ribbon in the wind

 I don't mind, not  knowin' what lies down the tracks

 'Cause I'm lookin' out ahead, to keep my mind from turin' back

 

 It's not the first time I've found myself alone at dawn

 If I'd really had you once, then I'd have you when I'm gone

 Whistle blowin' , blowin' lonesome in my mind

 Calling me along that never ending meadow vine

 

 CHORUS

 Steel Rails, chasin' sunshine 'round the bend

 Windin' through the trees like a ribbon in the wind

 I don't mind, not  knowin' what lies down the tracks

 'Cause I'm lookin' out ahead, to keep my mind from turin' back

 

 BREAK

 

 The sun is shinin' through the open boxcar door

 Lining my mind with the things I've known before

 I've lost count of the hours, days and time

 Just the rhythm of the rails keeps emotion in my mind

 

 CHORUS

 Steel Rails, chasin' sunshine 'round the bend

 Windin' through the trees like a ribbon in the wind

 I don't mind, not  knowin' what lies down the tracks

 'Cause I'm lookin' out ahead, to keep my mind from turin' back

 

 TAG

 'Cause I'm lookin' out ahead

 To keep my mind from turin' back
