Rolling Down the Track

©2019 By: Lloyd Mark Sutton

Sitting in Dallas waiting on a train
We played the Palace, that place is strange
Heading up to Wichita Falls for a little break
I got to see my baby for goodness sake

Jjust want to hear the clickety clack
Of the train rolling down the track
Just want to hear the clickety clack
Of the train rolling down the track

I get home she ain’t there
Well I’m all alone I do declare
I should have called or dropped her a line
Guess I’ve really done it this time

Just want to hear the tappity tap
Of her high heels coming back
Just want to hear the tappity tap
Of her high heels coming back

I head to Toodles for a little drink
But I had oodles till I couldn’t think
They called the law I don’t know why
But when I hit the door they blackened my eye

Then I felt the whackety whack
Of a night stick on my back
Then I felt the whackety whack
Of a night stick on my back

The morning sun shinning in my cell
What I have I done they won’t tell
Judge says guilty and I say what for
He slams his gavel says don’t say no more

Son, I don’t want to hear the yackety yack
Of you talking back
No, don’t want to hear the yackety yack
Of you talking back


Then Dave arrives he pays my fine
I get out barley alive in the nick of time
Head to the station we’re off again
Going to play music with our friends

Just want to hear the clickety clack
Of the train rolling down the track
Just want to hear the clickety clack
Of the train rolling down the track
