Story Behind The Song

I have this thing for RR tracks and was in Woodstock, NY, walking along an defunct set of tracks and voila! Can't get better than that!

Song Description

This is a song about escaping and simply being and enjoying the day do things that you want to do!

Lyrics

I walk down by the RR tracks to watch the wild weeds grow.
The morning sun is shining and summer breezes blow
No one else to see me as I wonder down the tracks
To sit and dream and ponder with the world behind my back

Down by the RR tracks! Ooh yes, down by the RR tracks

I stretch out by the river?s edge to hear the waters flow
The clouds drift on the morning mist and shadows come and go
No one else to watch me I can breath down deep alone
The air is fresh and silent here so far away from home

Down....

Humming, buzzing, rumbling, shaking down those tracks
Riding, sliding, gliding, flying don?t look back
Gleaming Dreaming, steaming, easing on my way
Praying I?ll be staying here today!

I step inside the graveyard gates to hear the church bells ring
i close my eyes and swear that I can hear the angels sing
The wind is whispering secrets to me and me alone
So I start dancing with the dead upon the old tombstones

Down...

Humming, buzzing, rumbling, shaking down those tracks
Riding, sliding, gliding, flying don?t look back
Gleaming, Dreaming, steaming, easing on my way
Praying I?ll be staying here today!


I sit down by the RR tracks beneath the old oak tree
I watch the sun begin to set and feel the evening breeze
