Steel train road song lyrics

When I was a little kid,

My father told me to see the world for him

So I took my things

And painted pink sunsets from the vast oceans



Send your dad a note. You made it, kid. You're on the road.

Send your dad a note. You made it, kid. You're on the road.



Mother, teach me about the country

Can you tell the lie from the lives that you've seen

Now Mother, can you tell me

Where this road is gonna lead



Just let yourself go and sell your soul to the road

Just let yourself go and sell your soul to the road



Don't you know I always rested under the tracks

Even then I knew I would always be back

Cause I know that my steel train

is gonna ride on til the end



Blue skies and desert rain

I passed my life by the course of steel train

And I'll ride to the end of the rails

I'd tell my father of all my tales



I said everything I saw, I was thinking of you

and the reason that we're here all because of you



Don't you know I always rested under the tracks

Even then I knew I would always be back

Cause I know that my steel train

is gonna ride on til the end

Yeah I know that my steel train

is gonna ride on til the end

And I know there's room on this steel train

and we'll ride on til the end
