Lyrics
My pockets were empty, my luck had run cold
City life and me just don't get on
On the streets and hungry, down and out
Going back to Cobalt, goodbye city town
I jump the freight, I'm heading back
My destination's down that railroad track
I'm gonna ride the Cobalt Line
Back to the life I left behind
It's not a lot, but I know it's mine
I'm heading back on down the Cobalt Line
Going back to Ruby, the last of her kind
In better days she was the queen of the mine
There's a room at the back, she's an old miner's friend
There'll be food on the table and a roof over my head
I jump the freight, I'm heading back
My destination's down that railroad track
I'm gonna ride the Cobalt Line
Back to the life I left behind
It's not a lot, but I know it's mine
I'm heading back on down the Cobalt Line
Going back to the company for a twelve hour shift
Back to the dirt and the dust and the grit
Down in a hole where the sun never goes
Doing time on the mother lode
I jump the freight, I'm heading back
My destiny's down that railroad track
I'm gonna ride the Cobalt Line
Back to the life I left behind
It's not a lot, but it's all mine
I'm gonna ride the Cobalt Line
Back to the life I left behind
It's not a lot, but it's all mine
I'm heading back on down the Cobalt Line
