If you will listen a song i will sing
G
about my daddy who ran a log train
CFC
way down in the southland in old alabam
GC
we lived in a place that they called chapman town
CFC
Late in the evening when the sun was low
G
way off in the distance you could hear the train blow
CFC
the folks would come running and momma would sing
GC
get the supper on the table here comes the log train
CFC
every morning at the break of day
G
he'd grab his lunch bucket and be on his way
CFC
winter or summer, sunshine or rain
GC
every morning he'd run that old log train
CFC
a sweatin and swearin all day long
G
shoutin get up there oxens keep movin along
CFC
load 'er boys cause it looks like rain
G
i've got to get rollin this old log train
CFC
this story happened a long time ago
G
the log train is silent, god called dad to go
CFC
but when i get to heaven to always remain
G
i'll listen for the whistle on the old log train
