Iron Lion — текст песни (Fairport Convention)

(Trevor Lucas)
Now I`ve been an engine driver all of my days
That`s the only thing I can do
I hold a good head of steam everywhere that I`m seen
Wherever my wheels rolled through
Wherever my wheels rolled through
Well, I was nearly shut down in a Midwest town
Her hair was red, her eyes were blue
But the wheels on the track kept calling me back
So I bid that girl adieu
Yes, I bid that girl adieu
Blow whistle, steel wheels keep on humming
Hold on darling your engine driver`s coming
He`s coming through
Some day I`ll have to give up the iron line
And then I`ll know just what I will find
I`ll find me some shack by some old railroad track
So I can hear them motors whine
So I can hear them motors whine
Blow whistle, hear them steel rails humming
Hold on darling your engineer is coming
He`s coming through
Now I`ve been an engine driver all of my days
That`s the only thing I can do
I hold a good head of steam anywhere that I`m seen
Anywhere my trains rolled through
Anywhere my trains rolled through
Blow whistle, hear that steel rail humming
Hold on girl your engine driver`s coming
Coming to you
