Yonder Comes a Train

A lonesome whistle sails through the pines
And finds me crying on my pillow
I wipe the tears and raise up my head
I hear a forest call up low

Listen yonder comes a train
Mama, is that the one he's on
The only thing that keeps me going
Is knowin' he's coming back home
And yonder comes a train

I broke his heart
And he got on a train
And told me come back anytime

Hope that I must have heard that old lonesome whistle
At least ten thousand times
Listen, yonder comes a train, mama
