Yonder Comes A Train Lyrics - Dottie West

A lonesome whistle sails through the pines 

And finds me crying on my pillow 

I wipe the tears and raise up my head 

I hear a forest call up low 

Listen yonder comes a train 

Mama, is that the one he's on 

The only thing that keeps me goin' is 

Knowin' he's coming back home 

And yonder comes a train 

I broke his heart and he got on a train 

And told me come back anytime 

Hope that I must have heard that old lonesome whistle 

At least ten thousand times 

Listen yonder comes a train 

Mama, is that the one he's on 

The only thing that keeps me goin' is 

Knowin' he's coming back home 

And yonder comes a train
