Letra de Had It Not Been for the Train

Had it not been for the train
Would ever know of Jesse James
Would his riches been so easily claimed
Had it not been for the train
Had it not been for the train
Would Roy Aickoff had missed the hall of fame
Orange bloom special wouldn't mean a thing
Had it not been for the train
And would big John Henry be a steal driving man
And would cowboys all be riding on that open range again
Without freight yards and boxcars
Would a hobo even have a place to stay
Had it not been for the train
Had it not been for the train
Had it not been for the train
Nobody'd ever know the man in black's name
An eight wheel moving on just wouldn't be the same
Had it not been for the train
Would we havе a song to sing about that Georgia mail
Or the wreck of 97 if it hadn't jumpеd the rail
And would you get that lonesome feeling
When an old steam whistle blows that sad refrain
Had it not been for the train
Had it not been for the train
