Chorus
Steel rails chasin' sunshine round the bend
Windin' through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I don't mind not knowin' what lies down the track
Cause I'm lookin' out ahead to keep my mind from turnin' back
Verse 1
It's not the first time I find myself alone at dawn
If I really had you once then I'd still have you when I'm gone
Whistle blowin', blowin' lonesome in my mind
Callin' me along that never endin' double line
Chorus
Steel rails chasin' sunshine round the bend
Windin' through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I don't mind not knowin' what lies down the track
Cause I'm lookin' out ahead to keep my mind from turnin' back
Verse 2
The sun is shinin' through the open boxcar door
Lyin' in my mind with the things I known before
And I've lost count of the hours and days and time
Just the rhythm of the rails keeps the motion in my mind
Chorus
Steel rails chasin' sunshine round the bend
Windin' through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I don't mind not knowin' what lies down the track
Cause I'm lookin' out ahead to keep my mind from turnin' back
Cause I'm lookin' out ahead to keep my mind from turnin' back
