Lyrics
Son, can you help me on this platform
I'm not so good at climbing stairs
Brought me a drink and some sandwiches
Want to just sit down, watch the trains
I come down here almost every Sunday
My grandkids used to come too
Now they drop me off at the front gate
I guess they got better things to do
Number 47, she's a good one
Number 63, sings like a bird
Number 29, that's the one they call the rocket
Thats the saddest train i've ever heard
Son, I'm a decorated veteran
I've fought in what they call the great war
I used to believe in everything it stood for
I don't believe in much anymore
Number 47, she's a good one
Number 63, sings like a bird
Number 29, that's the one they call the rocket
That's the saddest train I ever heard
Son, you look just like my boy
He stood here almost 40 years today
You look so good in that brand new soldiers uniform
But that rocket, never brought him back again
Number 47, she's a good one
Number 63, sings like a bird
Number 29, that's the one they call the rocket
Thats the saddest train I ever heard
Number 29, that's the one they call the rocket
That's the saddest train I ever heard
