The song Trains Make Me Lonesome is performed by George Strait in the album named Holding My Own in the year 2000 .
I was five years old when daddy started packing
And I stood there by my momma as she cried
And the next thing that we knew some old train came pa*sing through
And daddy got on board and we ain't seen him no more
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
It happens everytime that engine moans some
And when I hear that whistle blow that makes my heart sink low
And I wonder why trains make me lonesome
It was a cold dark night when I drove her to the depot
There were tears in my eyes and a ticket in her hand
And as we stood there by those tracks I knew she wasn't coming back
So I turned and walked away but I still miss her today
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
It happens everytime that engine moans some
And when I hear that whistle blow that makes my heart sink low
And I wonder why trains make me lonesome
Rest of this buildin' looks like simple station
Those inks spots look like engine number 9
And this couch on which I lay suppose to haul my blues away
That old pipe you keep toking Is like an old cold engine smoking dark fear
I wonder why trains make me lonesome
It happens everytime that engine moans some
And when I hear that whistle blow that makes my heart sink low
And I wonder why trains make me lonesome
Oh yes I wonder why trains amke me lonesome
