Title: Bury Me Where That Train Passes By - 2010-4
Post by: T.C. Elliott on January 25, 2010, 04:44:57 AM
Fourth song in my attempt to write a song a week in 2010. With apologies to Otis Gibbs.
Bury Me Where That Train Passes By
(c) 2010 T.C. Elliott
Time:
0:00
Volume:
50
0
My heart is heavy, my eyes filled with tears For all the things forgotten through the years Now I am weary, I've come to the end But I can hear that train coming 'round the bend
Here comes that train Travelin' so slow It's a passenger train in the sky My time is at an end But I still have far to go Bury me where that train passes by
If you ask me what do I see It's a hill town that's filled with peace No trouble inside those gold brick walls As he shows you into his great hall
Chorus
I hear that engine coming down the tracks I can hear it coming back I've got my ticket as I climb aboard As I go to see my Lord
Chorus
My heart is heavy, my eyes filled with tears For all the things forgotten through the years Now I am weary, I've come to the end But I can hear that train comin' round the bend
Chorus

Since I live right by the tracks wouldn't be hard to do. Just poor my ashes and when it goes by about 60 poof I'd be gone. ;) Great job! PJ
