David Francey St. Johns Train
[Chorus]
Well, you can wait by the railroad track
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
You can wait, but they won't be back
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
[Verse 1]
Well they took apart that band of steel
Down in the wreckers yard
And they left me standing here dragging my heels
Times get tough and times get hard
[Chorus]
Well, you can wait by the railroad track
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
You can wait, but they won't be back
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
[Verse 2]
And you won't see the lights in the passenger cars
Or pictures in the window frames
And you won't hear them shouting out, "All aboard!"
"Last call for the St. John's train"
[Chorus]
Well, you can wait by the railroad track
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
You can wait, but they won't be back
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
[Verse 3]
And you won't hear a whistle on a Winter's night
Echoing 'round that hill
But all I know is I'd feel alright
If I heard them echoing (echoing, echoing) still
[Chorus]
Well, you can wait by the railroad track
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
You can wait, but they won't be back
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
[Chorus]
Well, you can wait by the railroad track
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
You can wait, but they won't be back
Won't be no trains coming down, nowhere
