Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris - The Blue Train lyrics

Watching the long faces riding
This rundown track
And the lost places from a dream
That never brings them back
And the sad truth is nothing
But a cold hard fact

I'm riding the blue train over
The miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find
Me inside this blue train

Counting the burned bridges
Trailing this rusted wreck
As our back pages scatter in the dust we left
Like a pearl necklace falling
From around my neck

I'm riding the blue train over
The miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find
Me inside this blue train

Away down the low road
A ticket to an empty room
A rendezvous unknown

I'm riding the blue train over
The miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find
Me inside this blue train

I'm riding the blue train over
The miles yet to cover
A ghost in a hurry to fade
I'm taking it one way to nowhere
Afraid you might be there to find
Me inside this blue train
