Last Train Home

Can you hear that whistle blowin'?
Creepin' up those Blue Ridge Mountains one last time
Can you see that stream a rollin'?
Think it's just about to pass the county line

It runs every night at midnight
Sings it's haunted song while it rolls by
If I don't catch the next one
I'll be stuck inside this ghost town 'til I die

I'll catch that last train home
Send a letter back when I hit Tennessee
I'll catch that last train home
If I don't go then I know I'll never leave
I'll never leave

As it pulls out from the station
Got an achin' in my heart so desperately
Though I know she's back home waitin'
In another life you could've stayed with me

The shadows dance around me
As I stare into the moon beyond the trees
Got a half-a-flask of whiskey
Keeps me warm and puts my troubled mind at ease

I'll catch that last train home
Send a letter back when I hit Tennessee
I'll catch that last train home
If I don't go then I know I'll never leave
I'll never leave

I'll catch that last train home
Send a letter back when I hit Tennessee
I'll catch that last train home
If I don't go then I know I'll never leave
I'll never leave
