lirik lagu charles j. adams iii - 11:05
[verse 1]
it’s 11:05 and it’s a little bit late
but i just heard the whistle of the southbound freight
the norfolk & southern’s coming ’round the hill
it’s the only sound on this night, so still
here at 11:05
[verse 2]
as i puff up my pillow on the edge of sleep
the whistle takes me back to memories deep
putting pennies on the railroad track
and waiting for the train that crushed them flat
back at 11:05
[chorus]
at 11:05 in the morning of my life
that sound sliced the silence like a b~tterknife
i’ll never forget that weepy whistle sound
when that big locomotive came rolling down
back at 11:05
[verse 3]
we’d sit by the crossing in the midday sun
counting all the railcars one by one
coal cars, box cars ’round the bend
the little red caboose bringing up the end
back at 11:05
[verse 4]
we’d step and stumble on the wooden ties
looking for adventures, searching for a prize
we’d find a spike and a chunk of coal
simple little treasures good as childhood gold
back at 11:05
[chorus]
times and trains and i have changed
but one thing still remains the same
that whistle’s melancholy cry
is a strain of my night train lullaby
here at 11:05
