Paroles de Ballad For a Friend

Sad I'm sittin' on the railroad track Watchin' that old smokestack Train is a-leavin' but it won't be back Years ago we hang around Watchin' trains roll through the town Now that train is a-graveyard bound Where we go up in that north country Lakes and streams and mines so free I had no better friend than he Something happened to him that day I thought I heard a stranger say I hung my head and stole away A diesel truck was headin' down Pullin' down a heavy load It left him on a Utah road They carried him back to his home town His mother cried, his sister moaned Listenin' to them church bells tone A diesel truck was rollin' slow Pullin' down a heavy load And it left him on a Utah road
