E7
My Grandaddy was a railroad man
B7 E
When I was young he took me by the hand
E7
Drugged me to the station at the break of dawn
B7 E
Said "boy I got to show you somethin' 'fore it's gone"
A7
She was blue and silver - she was right on time
E B7 E
We rode that Texas Eagle on the Mopac line
SOLO
E7
We had some sandwiches that Granma packed
B7 E
We rode to Palestine and hitchhiked back
E7
Home in time for supper with a tale to tell
B7 E
That night I dreamed I heard that lonesome whistle wail
A7
When I got old enough to ridee the train alone
E7 B7 E
I'd ride that Texas Eagle up from San Antone
SOLO
E7
Nowadays they don't make no trains
B7 E
Just the piggyback freighters and them Amtrak things
E7
They shut the Eagle down awhile ago
B7 E
Sold it to the railroad down in Mexico
A7
But every now and then that whistle's on my mind
E7 B7 E
I ride that Texas Eagle ‘cross the borderline
From Steve Earle "The Mountain"
