Mr. Engineer Songtext

von J.D. Crowe and the New South

Engineer reach up and pull the whistle
Let me hear that lonesome sound
For it blends with the feeling that's in me
The one I love has turned me down

There's sixteen cars behind each engine
I'll ride the last one to the end of the line
I don't know where I'm going or where I'll wind up
Just anything to ease my worried mind

Engineer reach up and pull the whistle
Let me hear that lonesome sound
For it blends with the feeling that's in me
The one I love has turned me down

Break - fiddle

I'm gonna catch me a freight train
Lord I'm leaving this lonsome town
The one I loved and gave my heart to
For someone else she's turned me down

Engineer reach up and pull the whistle
Let me hear that lonesome sound
For it blends with the feeling that's in me
The one I love has turned me down

Break

Engineer reach up and pull the whistle
Let me hear that lonesome sound
For it blends with the feeling that's in me
The one I love has turned me down
