Two streaks of steel stretchin' cross the land too far to reach for my baby's hand
I stood and watched her disappear and in the distance I could hear whooe
Tomorrow I'll see coming down the track
That same old train that she ain't coming back
For her sweet love that once was mine faded just like a whistle's whine whooe
Two streaks of steel I've been standing beside
Where all that mattered in my life just died
I want to lay across those tracks when that train
Crossed those two streaks steel once again
Two streaks of steel took my love away no reason now for me to wanna stay
Next time I'll hear that whistle moan that all my troubles will be gone whooe whooe
