Bilingual
From where I sit I hear the midnight train
It makes me tired but sets my mind to dream
My life's been a long and rocky trail
Trace my steps from this old windowsill
Took to rambling back in '29
Jumped a mo-pac car one still hot night
Left a sweetheart, guess she cried
All the west wind felt so free that night
Ten years on that freedom took a run
From the fool whose finger cocked the gun
Boy to man to God to fugitive
What a precious thing that freedom is
Just an old man waiting here to die
From this window barred in dreams I ride
Back again to where I lost my way
Too late now to say I should have stayed
