Touring Charleston St. Wellsboro, Pa. Memorial Day weekend. Song from CD "Match Against a New Moon" www.fredgillenjr.com "Devil's Last Word"
I'm standing on the tracks again
staring at the light
watching it grow bigger
beautiful and bright
I stand until the rumble
of the train becomes a roar
looking for a glimpse of death tonight
Chorus: I don't want to get hit
I don't want to die
but I'm staying on these tracks
until I hear the devil's last word
I go down there every day
I'm drawn there constantly
sometimes I put a penny on the tracks
to see what the train will leave
and sometimes I lay on the tracks and dream
Chorus
everybody wants to do right and I'm not exception
but the fast-approaching light is so fascinating
the railroad men have warned me not to hang out there
but I know that I'll go down there again tonight
Chorus
