Lyrics " Grand Junction "

Original text with translation

Grand Junction

Greg Brown

If ya go back a-ways to the railroad days

When the 8-wheel drivers were steamin' down the line

Had a little old song;

you could sing along

Hear them brakemen singin' it all the time

Go like this

It’s a grand junction, grand junction

Grandest junction in the west

I been out on the line for a long old time

I’m goin' back to that junction I love the best

You gonna hear that whistle blow 'bout a mile, you know

And if the wind was right, you could hear it up to ten

Folks all gathered 'round when they heard that sound

And watched that little steamer parkin' there

And

Let’s go on down there

Now tell me who laid the rails;

who brought the mail

Who took the crops to market way back when

Who drove that engine;

who loaded that coal mine

Bunch of brave and rowdy railroad men

They sing it

Well the years’re rollin' down the line just like old Number 9

And a lot of things get lost or kicked around

But if you walk out at night when the moon is just right

You can still hear that old engine whinin' down
