Hometown gets buried in the rubble left behind
when memories are like a ghost train coming down the line
and that whistle causes people to flee
I got two coal cars watching over me
A young boy asked me "˜Sir where are you gonna go?'
"˜this town ain't big enough for what I'm gonna know.'
I said son go and see what you need to see
I got two coal cars watching over me
Since my father pointed them out
this town hasn't looked the same
they finally got them to the top
just as their world changed
