[Verse] Woke up to a morning sky so gray, Coffee cup was cold, but I heard that train say, A lonesome whistle blowing through the dawn, Like a secret message that I’d been drawn on. [Pre-Chorus] Sun ain’t quite up, but the sound’s so clear, Answer to a prayer that I whispered near. [Chorus] Train whistle moan, callin’ out my name, Runnin’ down the track like a runaway flame. Sly grin on my lips, I’m ready to ride, That whistle’s a friend on this lonesome tide. [Verse] Shadows stretching, but the day’s in my hands, That smoky sound’s like some old-time plans, Got a pocket full of blues and a heart that’s true, That whistle’s jokin’, but it knows what I do. [Pre-Chorus] Echoes in the wind, sayin’ don’t you fear, Life’s a crooked road, but the whistle’s near. [Chorus] Train whistle moan, callin’ out my name, Runnin’ down the track like a runaway flame. Sly grin on my lips, I’m ready to ride, That whistle’s a friend on this lonesome tide. [Bridge] Oh, that whistle’s laughin’, like it’s got a tale, Rollin’ down the rails where the night won’t fail. Every note it sings fills the morning air, Yeah, that train’s my answer, yeah, it’s my prayer. [Chorus] Train whistle moan, callin’ out my name, Runnin’ down the track like a runaway flame. Sly grin on my lips, I’m ready to ride, That whistle’s a friend on this lonesome tide. [Chorus] Train whistle moan, callin’ out my name, Runnin’ down the track like a runaway flame. Sly grin on my lips, I’m ready to ride, That whistle’s a friend on this lonesome tide. [Outro] Train whistle’s fade, but it lingers on, Playful in the dawn, till the night is gone.
