Golden Rocket — текст песни (Hank Snow)

`Board...

From old Montana down to Alabam`
I`ve been before and I`ll travel again
You triflin` women can`t keep a good man down
You dealt the cards, but you missed the play
So hit the road and be on your way
Gonna board the Golden Rocket and leave this town

I was a good engine a-runnin` on time
But baby I`m switchin` to another line
So honey never hang your signal out for me
I`m tired of runnin` on the same old track
Bought a one-way ticket and I won`t be back
This Golden Rocket`s gonna roll my blues away

Hear that lonesome whistle blow
That`s your cue and by now you know
That I got another true lover waitin` in Tennessee
This Midnight Special`s a-burnin` the rail
So woman don`t try to follow my trail
This Golden Rocket`s gonna roll my blues away

Hear her thunder on through the night
This Golden Rocket is a-doin` me right
And that sunny old Southland sure is a part of me
Now from your call-board erase my name
Your fire went out, you done lost your flame
And this Golden Rocket is a-rollin` my blues away

That old conductor, he seemed to know
You`d done me wrong, I was feelin` low
For he yelled aloud, we`re over that Dixon Line
The brakeman started singing a song
Said you`re worried now, but it won`t be long
This Golden Rocket is leavin` your blues behind

Then the porter yelled with his southern drawl
Let`s rise and shine good mornin` you all
And I sprang to my feet to greet the newborn day
When I kissed my baby in the station door
That whistle blew like it never before
On the Golden Rocket that rolled my blues away
