Jimmy Dean Big Railroad man Letras:
The birthday party was over toys were scattered
here and there Seven candles lay 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 because
you see he's a very big railroad man So you go on
to sleep now she kissed him turned out the light
But moments later a window opened and this little
boy slipped out into the night He was on his way
to the depot the express wasn't due till ten But
who knows it might run a special if daddy's comin'
in That mighty scream of the 9:15 wripped through
the winter night And the whirl of the wheels and
the clang of the steel Seemed that jarred the
country side It was a southbound freight and it
was runnin' late tryin' hard to make up time When
a great big man with a sack in his hand bound off
that train like a lion He hit the road like an old
pro then he got up off the ground Brushed the snow
from off his grimy clothes And he said hey kid

what's the name of this town The frightened boy
said Grandville sir and the man said well what do
you know I used to live in this little ol' one
horse town bout six or seven years ago I told my
wife when I left here that I was coming back in
style Ha oh well anyway I'm back I guess I might
as well visit for awhile So if you'll be so kind
as to point the way to the Joneses Well I'll go
now and leave you be And the young boy said the
only Joneses that live around here sir Is my mama
and my daddy and me Of course dad's been gone for
a long time now Course now he don't want to be ye
understand It's just that my daddy's got lotta
important things to do You see sir he's a very big
railroad man Oh 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 man scratched the side of his
head and said Grandville Grandville I thought you
said Denville Oh well it's a kida natural mistake
Now if you'll just point the way to the depot I'm
gonna be checkin' in on the fast freight I'll tell
you what you do oh boy you run on home now You
tell your mom to go ahead and fix up your daddy's
room Cause I've got the strangest feeling That
your dad just might become home pretty soon
