Cross Tie Walker

Tom: G

       G
I went down to the station
               D
Just to take a ride
       G
I went down to the station
               D
Just to take a ride
        A7
Found myself on a flatcar
            D
Yesterday behind

Verse 2:
Pullin' out from the platform
There was no brass band
I pulled out from the platform
Nobody raise a hand
There were no tears or regrets
From the runaway train
Train, train, train, train

(instrumental)

Verse 3:
Got no sand in my pocket
You know I ain't tied down
With no sand in my pocket
Never do sit down
I'm just a cross-tie walker
Where the freight trains run
Run, run, run, run

(instrumental)

Verse 4:
If you see me a-comin'
Don't you waste my time
If you see me a-comin'
Don't you waste my time
Cause there're more miles between us
Than the Santa Fe line
Run, run, run
