SMOKE ALONG THE TRACK

SMOKE ALONG THE TRACK
 by Stonewall Jackson
 
G                               C                G   
One day the train was passin' I caught it comin' by
                                             D7    
To look this old world over under God's blue sky
   G                              C             G     
My darlin' stood there weepin' as I was lookin' back
                               D7              G       
I kissed my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track
 
G               C                                   G      
Goodbye so long until I come back home you'll be my dream
                                                      D7     
Goodbye so long there's lots of places that I've never seen
     G                       C                G     
I'll always be a drifter but I'll be driftin' back
                                  D7              G       
To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track
 
I like to keep on goin' it helps me when I'm blue
I get the urge to travel that's all I want to do
I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam
And when I hear that whistle blow I've gotta move along
 
Goodbye so long there' s something down the track keeps callin' me
Goodbye so long I guess that's just the way I'll always be
So when I get that feelin' don't try to hold me back
I'd only leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track
 
I know my baby loves me I love my baby too
But she don't understand me when I'm feelin' blue
And when I hear that whistle blow I hurry home and pack
And leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track
 
Goodbye so long I hate to leave you but I've got to go
Goodbye so long It's comin' I just heard that whistle blow
It'll be here in a minute you'll wave and I'll look back
I'm gonna leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track
