Lyrics
(One, two, three, four)
I go through phases when
There's no phrases and
She amazes me, erases me and
Stuck in stages then
Punctuated when
She enrages me, engages me and
All along our pistons pumped, it seems
On rails laid wrong
And without coal enough for steam
And it's like Andy said
Vanity she shed
Now her tissue tigers auger idle threats
But there's some villain cast
'Versed to vex you fast
And now your train has passed, I watched you board the last
Records set for distance sped to halt
You can bet it's this awful engine's fault
You can hear the cars crash through the yard where we grew up
Western Pacific, Western Pacific
You could hear the trestle and the whistle stop
Western Pacific, Western Pacific
Coalface first the blackened facts
Your locomotive's honest
You played the damsel on the tracks who would up tied in the process
And I
And all along our pistons pumped, it seems
On rails laid wrong
And without
Coalface first the blackened facts
Your locomotive's honest
You played the damsel on the tracks who would up tied in the process
And I died for your losses, did I-I-I-I-I?
No quarrel or catch
Or moral attached
As the express crashed, I found your penny smashed
