Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders, Three conductors and twenty five sacks of mail

All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kenkakee

Rolls along past houses farms and fields

Passing trains that have no name freight yards full of old black men

And the graveyards of rusted automo-biles

Dealing card games with the old men in the club car, Penny a point ain't no-one keeping score

Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle, Feel the wheels rumbling 'neath the floor

And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers

Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel
Dm

Mothers with their babes asleep rocking to the gentle beat

And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel +CHORUS

Half way home and we'll be there by morning, Through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea

But all the towns and people seem, to fade into a bad dream

And the steel rail still ain't heard the news
Dm

The conductor sings his songs again, The passengers will please refrain

This train got the disappearing railroad blues +CHORUS
