Lightning Express Lyrics - Songs Our Daddy Taught Us - Everly Brothers

The lightning express from the depot so grand 

Had started out on its way 

All of the passengers that were on board 

Seemed to be happy and gay 

 

But one little boy who sat by himself 

Was reading a letter he had 

You could plainly tell by the look on his face 

That the contents of it made him sad 

 

The stern old conductor then started his round 

Taking tickets from everyone there 

And finally reaching the side of the boy 

He gruffly demanded his fare 

 

"I have no ticket" the boy then replied 

"But I'll pay you back someday" 

"Then I'll put you off at the next stop we make" 

But he stopped when he heard the boy say

"Please Mr. Conductor 

Don't put me off of this train 

The best friend I have in this world sir 

Is waiting for me in pain 

Expecting to die any moment sir 

And may not live through the day 

I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye 

Before God takes her away." 

 

A girl sitting near was heard to exclaim 

"If you put him off, it's a shame." 

Taking his hand, a collection she made 

The boy's way was paid on the train 

 

"I'm obliged to you miss for your kindness to me." 

"You're welcome," she said, never fear 

Each time the conductor would pass through the car 

The boy's words would ring in his ear
