Westbound Trains Lyrics

I guess he don’t like westbound trains

Stopped down by the depot this morning
But the train had already gone
The man said the train
just coasted on through
Dropped the mail and moved on

chorus:
If he’s ever coming back
I wish it was now that he did
I checked every train sunshine or rain
I guess he don’t like westbound trains

He boarded an eastbound last season
And this is the place where I stood
And waved as he rode off into the sunrise
He could ride one back if he would

repeat chorus twice
