Nashville Bound - John Paul Wright

I got a two-hour call for a train at three.
Nashville bound is where I’ll be.
While in the bedroom is where they lay.
Five, three and one on the way.
Ready to go and the grips are packed.
Two hours down and twelve hours back.
Laid up in the hotel until the next day.
Waste another twelve hours away.
Sun, sleet, snow or rain.
You bet you’ll find me on a train.
Workin’ my days away.
Carrying a picture to ease the pain.
I got a two-hour call for a train at three.
Nashville bound is where I’ll be.
While in the bedroom is where they lay.
Five, three and one on the way.
Days go by and holidays pass.
Watchin’ my kids and they grow up fast.
Livin’ the hard life on the road.
Never knowin’ when I have to go.
Daddy will be here when I wake up.
As I open the door his head pops up.
Know the railroad called,
And I have to go.
Love you, see you when I get home.
I got a two-hour call for a train at three.
Nashville bound is where I’ll be.
While in the bedroom is where they lay.
Five, three and one on the way.
