Lyle Lovett - Texas Trilogy Train Ride

Lyle Lovett

Texas Trilogy Train Ride

(S. Fromholz)

Well, the last time I remember
that train stopping at the depot,
Was when me and my Aunt Veta
came riding back from Waco,
I remember I was wearing
my long pants and we was sharing
conversation with a man
who sold ball-point pens and paper.

And the train stopped in Clifton,
Where my aunt bought me some ice cream,
And my Mom was there to meet us,
When the train pulled into Kopperl.

But now kids at night break window lights,
And the sound of trains only remains,
In the memory of the ones like me,
Who have turned their backs on the splintered cracks
in the walls that stand on the railroad land,
Where we used to play and then run away
from the depot man.

I remember me and brother
used to run down to the depot,
Just to listen to the whistle
when the train pulled into Kopperl;
And the engine big and shiny,
black as coal that fed the fire,
And the engineer would smile and say,
"Howdy, how ya fellows?"

And the people by the windows,
Playing cards and reading papers,
Looked as far away to us
As next summer's school vacation...

Mirror lyrics:

As next summer's school vacation...
Looked as far away to us
Playing cards and reading papers,
And the people by the windows,

"Howdy, how ya fellows?"
And the engineer would smile and say,
black as coal that fed the fire,
And the engine big and shiny,
when the train pulled into Kopperl;
Just to listen to the whistle
used to run down to the depot,
I remember me and brother

from the depot man.
Where we used to play and then run away
in the walls that stand on the railroad land,
Who have turned their backs on the splintered cracks
In the memory of the ones like me,
And the sound of trains only remains,
But now kids at night break window lights,

When the train pulled into Kopperl.
And my Mom was there to meet us,
Where my aunt bought me some ice cream,
And the train stopped in Clifton,

who sold ball-point pens and paper.
conversation with a man
my long pants and we was sharing
I remember I was wearing
came riding back from Waco,
Was when me and my Aunt Veta
that train stopping at the depot,
Well, the last time I remember
