Vince Gill - Jenny Dreamed Of Trains Lyrics






When Jenny was a little girl she only dreamed of trains
She never played with dolls or lacy kinds of things
Jenny counted boxcars instead of countin' sheep
She could go anywhere when she went to sleep

All she ever talked about was gettin' on to ride
She was livin' in another time you could see it in her eyes
Everyday after school she'd head down to the tracks
Waitin' for the train that was never comin' back

[Chorus:]
Jenny dreamed of trains
When the nighttime came
Nobody knew how she made it come true
Jenny dreamed of trains

The depot's been boarded up, the rails have turned to rush
There hasn't been a train through here since the mill went bust
No one believed her when she said she heard the train
Said she was just a little girl actin' kinda strange

Jenny laid a penny on the track one day
In God we trust she walked away
The very next mornin' all that she could find
Was a little piece of copper squashed flatter than a dime

Nobody knew how she made it come true
Jenny dreamed of trains

    Mystical, hopeful, fulfilling... about childhood. Who among us cannot relate to this lyric?

  2. R.... S....

  3. b.... ....

    Vince Gill is one of the greatest living singer/songwriters ever. Plays a mean guitar too. While I love most of his music, this has always been one of my favorites.

  4. �.... ....

    Very good. 👌🏻👍🏻

  5. K.... F....

    The two uneducated people who gave this song the thumbs-down, metaphysical is a true reality. Vince gave a beautiful loving lyric to his daughter, Jenny. As a. meditator with no ego l watched the LOVE flow between my primary or original Soulmate and myself. I won't forget this experience ever in any lifetime. I would also suggest that you watch
    a 52min and 2sec Documentary on
    Animal Communication about Anna Bleytenbach and animals communicating with each other. Begin your metaphysical education with an open-mind and some sensitivity from this point on. Jen your story has been immortalised through your loving Dad, Vince. Others have done cover-versions, but this is simply the best forever!!!!!!!

    Big thumbs up Kevin. Fantastic song.

    The most underrated song of all time. Heartfelt thanks to Vince Gill and Guy Clark for their magnificent metaphysical masterpiece. Please get together and add many more gems with this one.
