[E7]My Grandaddy was a railroad man
When I was young he took me [B7]by the h[E]and
[E7]Drugged me to the station at the break of dawn
Said "boy I got to show you somethin' '[B7]fore it's [E]gone"
She was [A7]blue and silver - she was right on time
We [E]rode that Texas Eagle on the [B7]Mopac l[E]ine

SOLO

[E7]We had some sandwiches that Granma packed
We rode to Palestine and [B7]hitchhiked [E]back
[E7]Home in time for supper with a tale to tell
That night I dreamed I heard that lonesome [B7]whistle [E]wail
[A7]When I got old enough to ridee the train alone
[E7]I'd ride that Texas Eagle up from [B7]San [E]Antone

SOLO

[E7]Nowadays they don't make no trains
Just the piggyback freighters and them [B7]Amtrak [E]things
[E7]They shut the Eagle down awhile ago
Sold it to the railroad down in [B7]Mexi[E]co
[A7]But every now and then that whistle's on my mind
[E7]I ride that Texas Eagle cross the [B7]border[E]line
