Tell The Ones I Love - Steep Canyon Rangers

Last train, before they shut it down

It’s the last line going that way

Last chance headin' out of town

I thought I heard the driver say

Packed my bags and all my things

And left them all behind

Red light flashing across that river bridge

And I’m headin' down to Caroline

Far away from my everyday

‘Til every day ran dry

Never stopped to look behind me

Or turned to say goodbye

So tell the ones I love this trains runnin' late

And there ain’t no end of the line

The hardest part of heaven is makin' it wait

But the old 97's gonna make it this time

Everything was made to break

And the wheels are made of glass

I can hear ‘em groan and feel ‘em shakin'

Neath the weight of all our past

Close my eyes and feel the wind

Lean back and let her roll

And then that 97 hits 110

You can feel it in your soul

Last train, before they shut it down

It’s the last line going that way

Last chance headin' out of town

I thought I heard the driver say
