[00:00.00]Greenville Trestle High - Doc Watson
[00:11.64]I remember as a boy how I'd wander and enjoy
[00:16.69]I'd watch the trains as they'd go by
[00:21.62]And the whistle's lonely sound
[00:24.12]You could hear for miles around
[00:26.80]As they rolled across that Greenville trestle high
[00:31.98]But the whistles don't sound like they used to
[00:37.29]Lately not many trains go by hard times across the land
[00:44.59]Mean no work for the railroad man
[00:47.52]And the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high
[01:13.22]On the river bank I'd stand
[01:15.21]With a cane pole in my hand
[01:17.83]Watch the freight trains up against the sky
[01:22.89]With black smoke trailing back as they moved along the track
[01:27.88]That runs across that Greenville trestle high
[01:33.12]But the whistles don't sound like they used to
[01:38.42]Lately not many trains go by hard times across this land
[01:45.79]Mean no work for the railroad man
[01:48.35]And the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high
[02:33.59]When the lonesome whistles wind
[02:35.77]I get rambling on my mind
[02:38.08]Lord I wish they still sounded that way
[02:43.45]As I turned to head for home lord she'd rumble low and long
[02:48.57]Towards the sunset at the close of day
[02:53.56]No the whistles don't sound like they used to
[02:58.80]Lately not many trains go by hard times across the land
[03:06.68]Mean no work for the railroad man
[03:08.75]And the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high
[03:13.88]No the Greenville trestle now don't seem so high
