The Everly Brothers Lightning Express Letras:
A lightning express from the depot so grand,
Had started out on its way,
Most of the people on board this train,
Seemed to be happy and gay,
But one little boy on a seat by himself,
Was reading a letter he had,
It was plain to be seen by the tears in his eyes,
That the contents of it made him sad.

The stern old conductor then started to take,
A ticket from everyone there,
Finally on reaching the side of the boy,
Roughly demanded his fare,
"I have not a ticket" the boy said,
"But I'll be back someday"
"I'll put you off the next station he said."
Stopping when he heard the boy say

"Oh please, Mr. Conductor,
[Más Letras en es.mp3lyrics.org/ieV]
Don't put me off of your train,
For the dearest friend that I have in this world,
Is waiting for me in vain,
She's expected to die any moment,
They don't think she can live through the day,
And I want to kiss my mother's sweet lips,
Before God takes her away"

A man was sitting on a seat nearby,
Said, "If you put that boy off, it's a shame"
And taking his hat, a collection did make,
And soon paid his way on the train,
The conductor accepted it with a smile,
And soon had forgotten his fears,
But as he passed back through the train
These words did ring in his ears.

"Oh please, Mr. Conductor
Don't put me off of your train,
For the dearest friend that I have in this world,
Is waiting for me in vain,
She's expected to die any moment,
They don't think she can live through the day,
And I want to kiss my mother's sweet lips,
Before God takes her away"
