Going Away

Is that the moon I see over there in the west
Or the headliight gleam, C & O express?
I know you're gone, whatever I say
It won't be long till I make up my mind
And go away

Is that the sun coming up on the eastern shore
Or just the coal bed glow behind the firebox door?
I know you're gone, whatever I say
It won't be long 'til I make up my mind
And go away

Did you see that fool, he can't hear the whistle
Blind old man caught out on the trestle
Can't go up and he can't go back
Train kept coming brushed him off the track

Other storms may blow and the wind may rise
I long to go where the fast mail flies
I know you're gone, whatever I say
It won't be long 'til I make up my mind
And go away

Did you see that fool, he can't hear the whistle
Blind old man caught out on the trestle
Can't go up and he can't go back
Train kept coming brushed him off the track

Other storms may blow and the wind may rise
I long to go where the fast mail flies
I know you're gone, whatever I say
It won't be long 'til I make up my mind
And go...
