Dale Watson - Runaway Train
[E]Born like everyone with a slate as clean
[E]Baby grew into a boy and started building steam
[E]Boy learned how to blow it off in a dangerous kind of way
[E]Well fellas here he comes that r[E7]unaway train
[A]Now hear his lonesome cry barrelin' down the track
[E]Out of control his soul dressed in black
[A]Sound to every man thats broken the chain
[E]Rollin rollin rollin like a run[B7]away tr[E]ain
It ain't easy to do your best when life comes at you fast
On his own so early on too young for such a task
Took the bull by the horn sometimes that bull was mean
And only at it stoking on that runaway train
Chorus
Married young and daddy soon his life was right on track
Something rumbled in his soul something that he lacked
He had to chase that melody that fueled a childhood dream
There ain't no holding back that runaway train
Chorus
Rollin rollin rollin like a runaway train
Hmmmmm I here that train a commin
Hmmmmm Hey Porter Ohh Porter
Hmmmmm I don't care if I do da do
[E]Born like everyone with a slate as clean
[E]Baby grew into a boy and started building steam
[E]Boy learned how to blow it off in a dangerous kind of way
[E]Well fellas here he comes that r[E7]unaway train
[A]Now hear his lonesome cry barrelin' down the track
[E]Out of control his soul dressed in black
[A]Sound to every man thats broken the chain
[E]Rollin rollin rollin like a run[B7]away tr[E]ain
It ain't easy to do your best when life comes at you fast
On his own so early on too young for such a task
Took the bull by the horn sometimes that bull was mean
And only at it stoking on that runaway train
Chorus

Something rumbled in his soul something that he lacked
He had to chase that melody that fueled a childhood dream

Hmmmmm Hey Porter Ohh Porter
