 My daddy was the s-o-n 
Em                      D 
 Of a railroad man from West of hell 
          Em           B7   Em 
Where the trains don't even run

Never heard the whistle of a South-bound freight

 They say the highway's just one big road

And it goes from here to the-re 
         Em              D 
And they say you carry a heavy load

When you're rollin' down the line some-where

(No I...)

      Em                D 
Now a sailors life is a life for him

But it never was for me-e 
         Em                     D 
And I've never soared where the hawk may soar  
   Em            B7         Em 
Or seen what the hawk might see
