Lyrics

UNDER THE RAILROAD BRIDGE

I USED TO LIE AWAKE AND LISTEN FOR THE TRAIN
SHE SAID SHE DIDN'T BUT I KNOW SHE DID THE SAME
AND EVERY TIME THAT LONESOME WHISTLE CRIED
THERE'S NO DOUBT WHAT WAS ON OUR MINDS
WE'D BE THINKING BOUT HOW WE WERE GONNA SLIP
DOWN THE DIRT ROAD TO THE END OF THE FENCE
OVER THE HILL AND UNDER THE RAILROAD BRIDGE

SHE'D SAY IT'S GOING SO FAST AND IT'S GROWING STRONG
I'D SAY DON'T WORRY BABY JUST KEEP HOLDING ON
AS IT MADE IT'S PASS I WOULD TOO
WHAT'S A COUNTRY BOY TO DO
IT WAS OUT OF OUR HANDS, OUT OF CONTROL
BUT LIKE OL 97 WE LET IT ROLL
OVER THE HILL UNDER THE RAILROAD BRIDGE

IT MIGHT OF GONE AGAINST WHAT THE PREACHER SAID
BUT THE FIRE WAS BANKED AND THE COALS BURNING RED
WE CARVED A HEART IN THE WISHING TREE
AND MADE A VOW OF SECRECY
CAUSE WE'D OF LOST IT ALL HAD THEY KNOWN
WHAT WAS REALLY GOING ON
OVER THE HILL UNDER THE RAILROAD BRIDGE

SHE'D SAY IT'S GOING SO FAST AND IT'S GROWING STRONG
I'D SAY DON'T WORRY BABY JUST KEEP HOLDING ON
AS IT MADE IT'S PASS I WOULD TOO
SHE'D SAY WHAT'S A COUNTRY GIRL TO DO
IT WAS OUT OF OUR HANDS, OUT OF CONTROL
BUT LIKE OL 97 WE LET IT ROLL
OVER THE HILL UNDER THE RAILROAD BRIDGE

YEA, WE FOUND A THRILL UNDER THE RAILROAD BRIDGE
