Railroad Lyrics - Kasey Chambers

Your mother don't cry 

Your daddy don't go 

The spies don't let the government know 

The water don't rise 

Living on the railroad 

Your brother don't lie 

Your lover don't cheat 

The ground won't fall 

From under your feet and the wind don't blow 

Livin on the railroad 

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad 

Your color don't fade 

Your sorrow don't show 

The shadow don't follow wherever you go 

The butter don't melt livin' on the railroad 

Your cards don't lose 

Your brakes don't fail 

The rain comes down to cover your trail 

But the wind don't blow living on the railroad 

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad 

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad 

Thunder, lightening, 

Stealing, fighting 

Crashing, cryin, breakin', dyin', 

Failing, fallin', lyin' 

Greed 

These are the things I never see 

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad 

Living on the railroad, living on the railroad
