Neil Young, Crazy Horse - Southern Pacific lyrics

[Neil Young, Crazy Horse - Southern Pacific lyrics]

Down the mountainside to the coastline
Past the angry tide the mighty diesel whines
And the tunnel comes and the tunnel goes
Round another bend the giant drivers roll

I rode the Highball i fired the Daylight
When I turned sixty-five
I couldn't see right it was, "Mr jones
We've gotta let you go it's company policy
You've got a pension though"

Roll on, Southern Pacific
On your silver rail on your silver rail
Roll on, Southern Pacific
On your silver rail through the moonlight

I put in my time i put in my time
Now I'm left to roll down the long decline
I ain't no brake man ain't no conductor
But I would be though if I was younger

Roll on, Southern Pacific
On your silver rail on your silver rail
Roll on, Southern Pacific
Roll on, on your silver rail
