Lacie Madison.com: Music & Lyrics

Left a note on the nightstand,
Just the other night
Said “I’m sorry my love I hate to let you down.
I just can’t take anymore tryin’ to make things right,
So I hoped a train and left this town.”

And I hear those wheels a rollin’ round,
How I used to love that sound,
Till they took my baby far from me
Rolling down that cold steel track,
I know that he ain’t coming back,
Left me crying down in Tennessee

I know he used to ride the rails
When he was young and free.
But he swore he left those railroad days behind
Said he wanted to settle down
And make a home with me
Now he’s hopped a train on the Georgia line.

And I hear those wheels a rollin’ round,
How I used to love that sound.
Till they took my baby far from me
Rolling down that cold steel track,
I know that he ain’t coming back,
Left me crying down in Tennessee

The train it rolls right by our house,
And I can hear it say
He’s gone so far never to return.
I know he isn’t worth my love
To break my heart this way,
Yet deep inside still the fire burns

And I hear those wheels a rollin’ round,
How I used to love that sound,
Till they took my baby far from me
Rolling down that cold steel track,
I know that he ain’t coming back,
Left me crying down in Tennessee

Yes I hear those wheels a rollin’ round,
How I used to love that sound,
Till they took my baby far from me
Rolling down that cold steel track,
I know that he ain’t coming back,
Left me crying down in Tennessee

Yes he broke my heart way down in Tennessee.
