Got a guitar Got a guitar on my back And I'm on this lonesome railroad track Train's a comin' It'll be here 'fore too long But don't think I can stop it with a song Girl that's the kind way I'm feelin' Tryin' to stop your leavin'
Got a pebble a pebble in my hand And I toss it out into the middle of the Rio Grande But the river keeps runnin' even know that I'm around I could throw a million more and not slow it down Girl that's kind of what feelin' Tryin' to stop your leavin'
There's nothin' that I wouldn't try If I thought it would change mind
But you don't love me No you don't love me anymore And I know as as you walk out that door Train's a comin', river's runnin' Train's a comin', river's Pain's a comin', tears are runnin' Yeah that's of the way I'm feelin' Knowin' I couldn't stop your leavin'
