Workin On The Santa Fe versuri

Workin On The Santa Fe lyrics by Randy Starr

Verse 1
Every morning when sun comes out
I drink my coffee from a old tin cup
I run to the railroad to be on time
And the foreman says, „Buddy, fall in line”

Chorus
Workin’ on the Santa Fe
Workin’ on the Santa Fe
Gonna lay that track till I break my back
Working on the railway, working on the Santa Fe
Oh, hey, ah-ah-ah

Verse 2
Well, I got a woman who’s good to me
Loving it true as she can be
She always does the best she can
But it’s hard being married to a railroad man

Chorus
Who’s working on the Santa Fe
Workin’ on the Santa Fe
Gonna lay that track till I break my back
Working on the railway, working on the Santa Fe
Oh, hey, ah-ah-ah

Verse 3
Now they tell me whеn that foreman dies
They’ll bury him undеr these railroad ties
But when I die, I wanna go where
I’ll never hear another train whistle blow

Chorus
Workin’ on the Santa Fe
Workin’ on the Santa Fe
Gonna lay that track till I break my back
Working on the railway, working on the Santa Fe
Oh, hey, ah-ah-ah

Outro
One of these days I’m gonna quit this job
Gonna put down my pick and get out of town, yeah
