Stonewall Jackson-Smoke Along The Track

[Restless1Soul]

Stonewall has a brother named Wade.He was stationed in Germany with my dad way back in the 60's.I remember many songs my dad played by Stonewall as they squaredanced..Wade was a big man,very funny at that.

Hank Williams' Steel Guitar Player, Don Helms, co-wrote Smoke Along the Tracks. I don't remember who the other writer was.

not sure but i thoght elzie murry wrote in ky prison

[78Zic]

One day the train was passin, I caught it comin by

To look this old world over, under God’s blue sky

My darlin’ stood there weepin as I was lookin back

I kissed my baby crying in the smoke along the track

Goodbye, so long, until I come back home, you’ll be my dream

Goodbye, so long, there’s lots of places that I’ve never seen

I’ll always be a drifter, but I’ll be driftin’ back

To where I left you cryin in the smoke along the track

[78Zic]

I like to keep on goin, it helps me when I’m blue

I get the urge to travel, that’s all I want to do

I know I just can’t settle down, because I like to roam

And when I hear that whistle blow, I’ve gotta move along

Goodbye, so long, there’s something down the track that’s callin me

Goodbye, so long, I guess that’s just the way I’ll always be

So when I get that feelin’ don’t try to hold me back

I’d only leave you cryin’ in the smoke along the track

[78Zic]

I know my baby loves me, I love my baby too

But she don’t understand me when I’m feelin blue

And when I hear that whistle blow, I hurry home and pack

And leave my baby cryin’ in the smoke along the track

Goodbye, so long, I hate to leave you but I’ve got to go

Goodbye, so long, It’s comin, I just heard that whistle blow

It’ll be here in a minute, you’ll wave and I’ll look back

I’m gonna leave you cryin in the smoke along the track

doe's anyone know  who wrote this song?

[Grisbi6]

Whenever Stonewall would gig at the Flame Cafe in Minneapolis, I would be there in the front, and would request this song. He wrote it, and he was flattered when someone requested it.
