Bill Anderson Big Railroad man Letras:
The birthday party was over toys were scattered
here and there Seven candles laid by the last
piece of cake in front of an empty chair A mother
said son I know you're disappointed but please try
to understand Your daddy's been awfuly busy cause
he's a big railroad man So you go on to sleep now
she kissed him and turned out the light Moments
later a window opened and the young boy slipped
out into the night He was on his way to the depot
the express wasn't due till ten But they they just
might run a special if they knew that dad was
comin' in The mighty scream of the 9:15 tore
through the winter night The whirl of the wheels
and the clang of the steel jarred the country side
The southbound freight was running late desperate
to make up time When a giant of a man with a sack
in his hand leaped off like a mountain lion He hit
and rolled like an old pro and he got up off the
ground He brushed the snow from off his grimy
clothes and said Hey kid what's the name of this

town The frightened boy said Grandville sir the
man said well what do ya know Ha I used to live in
this little one horse town I guess about six or
maybe it was seven years ago I told my wife when I
left here that I'd be coming back in style Ha oh
well anyway it looks like I'm back I guess I just
might as well visit awhile So if you'll be so kind
as to point the way to the Joneses Why I'll go now
and leave you be The young boy said sir the only
Joneses that live around here Is my mama and my
daddy and me Course dad he's been gone a long time
now Course now he don't want to be ye understand
It's just that daddy's got lots of important
things to do You see he's a big railroad man He
sends me birthday presents and mama reads me what
he writes In his last letter daddy promised that
he was gonna try and make it home tonight The old
man scratched the side of his head and he said
Grandville Grandville I thought you said Denville
oh well I guess that's natural mistake Now if
you'll just point the way to the depot Why I'll be
checking on the next fast freight Tell you what
you run on home now and you tell your mom To go
ahead and fix up your daddy's room Cause I've got
the strangest feeling That your daddy just might
be coming home pretty soon
