Paroles de I'm William Callahan

I'm William Callahan
I used to be a ramblin' man
I left home at seventeen
Hopped a freight to Birmingham
Started poor as Kentucky coal
Lined my pockets with Denver gold
I've been cold as Alaska snow
Searching for the sun

It was a long time ago
I had a restless soul
Trains come and whistles blow
I let 'em roll

This is my wife, Angeline
She used to be a cajun queen
I took her from the mayor's son
Bourbon Street, New Orleans
She had a will no man could tame
She took her chances when they came
Left with me on a midnight train
Searching for the sun

It was a long time ago
She had a restless soul
Trains come and whistles blow We look in each other's eyes
There ain't a lot that we ain't seen
We'd be out there running tonight
But we've run the race and fought the fight
We think we did alright

It was a long time ago
We had a restless soul
Trains come and whistles blow
We let 'em roll
