Lyrics to "Both Ends of the Train"
I roomed with him in Rockville in 1925
He was doing life and I was doing time
His memory drifted back when he was most alive
When Frank and Jesse James were in their prime
He was a corporal, fought the Kiowa and Sioux
From Sulphur Springs to Kansas City
Ran into trouble when his soldier days were through
Ended up a thousand miles away
Don't waste fond words sad goodbye
Lay me down on the wide open plain
Out beneath the quilted sky
Where I can see both ends of the train
He said I saw the buffalo, the herds would last for days
Back before the railroad came
Now it's all moved on without me but I miss the older ways
And I know it can never be the same
They buried him at Rockville and his kind won't rise again
I hope his soul can find some rest
To the world he's long forgotten, but to me he was a friend
I still recall his last request
Don't waste fond words sad goodbye
Lay me down on the wide open plain
Out beneath the quilted sky
Where I can see both ends of the train

This song grips me. Makes me think of my ancestors who lived on the frontier when Buffalo still ranged even out East.
Big fan here. From Brazil. Your music is universal and brings joy to my heart. Keep on!
