Graniteville

Just a boxcar flower used to follow your daddy
 another freighter in from Cincinnati
 you were always watching, watching the train roll by
 yeah, you know I love you, everything you carry
 another red eye, Mobile to Albany,
 you were always watching, watching the train roll by.
 So tell me what's going on in Graniteville
 got your whole town underneath the sleeping pill
 It's a quiet little city, you grew up together
 there's a picture looking out your grandmother's window
 there's a black train running through the middle of the night,
 if it finds us here, well there's nowhere to hide
 And if we ever wake up in Graniteville,
 you know how much I love you and I always will

 Trying so hard just to get away
 some people want to die in a quiet place
 but everybody's always watching, watching the trains roll by
 You have a place to go it's never enough
 Little hearts paying toll, trains in a rush
 our town's always leaving,
 leaving the girl goodbye
 But every town is small when it comes for you
 just like everyone's asleep when it's passing through.
 tonight I heard the screaming of a million tons
 So wake up pretty baby, turn the light on
 tonight's there's something's different, something's gone wrong.
 we've been sleeping too long. so long.

 Wake up baby, there's a train a coming,
 don't you leave me or forsake me
 Wake up baby there's a train a coming,
 don't you know how much I love you
 Wake up baby and hear the screeching,
 there's a whole town drifting off to dreaming
 Wake up baby there's a train a coming,
 winter's leaving, spring has sprung
 Wake up baby, hear the screaming,
 whole town dies while it's still sleeping
 Wake up baby there's a train a coming,
 don't forget you know I love you
