Dwight Yoakam - Smoke Along The Track Lyrics

One day the train was passing, I caught it coming by
To look this old world over, under god's blue sky
My darling stood there weeping as I was looking back
I kissed my baby crying in the smoke along the track

Bye, bye, so long, there's something down the track
It's calling me
Bye, bye, so long, I guess that's just the way
I'll always be
Now when I get this feeling
Don't try to hold me back
I'll only leave you crying
In the smoke along the track

I like to keep on going, it helps me when I'm blue
I get the urge to travel, that's all I want to do
I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam
And when I hear that whistle blow I gotta move along

Bye, bye, so long, there's something down the track
It's calling me
Bye, bye, so long, I guess that's just the way
I'll always be
Now when I get this feeling
Don't try to hold me back
I'll only leave you crying
In the smoke along the track

I know my baby loves me, I love my baby too
But she don't understand me when I'm feeling blue
And when I hear that whistle blow I hurry home to pack
And kiss my baby crying in the smoke along the track

Bye, bye, so long, there's something down the track
It's calling me
Bye, bye, so long, I guess that's just the way
I'll always be
Now when I get this feeling
Don't try to hold me back
I'll only leave you crying
In the smoke along the track
