Letra de Fear of Trains

It was the army train that took her daddy from her It was the bible train that took her momma too And that high loud whistle made her horse run away But the straw the broke the camel's back was you It was the government train that took away her childhood It was the KKK that took away her past It was the white man's will that hers be broken But that barefoot girl could run too fast CHORUS: Because the world's too cold for a girl like that with a Blackfoot soul and a cowboy hat Everything she loved went down the dragon track She had a fear of trains BRIDGE: In the beet fields of Montana She's always coming on dead rails to break the plow and whisper "Honey, bound to live is bound to fail" And in a park in San Francisco her momma shrieks about the Lord And down the dead rails there's an echo The wind is whistling all-aboard CHORUS It was the wagon train that took away her country It was the oil train that took away her land She could have been the belle of the ponderosa but that was not the fat man's plan CHORUS
