ARTIST'S NOTES:
Two solid weeks of house band duty for both the Falcon Ridge and Winterhawk festivals left some music in my head. The residue of articulate bluegrass picking from the latter fest rang on in my mind. Late summer 1999.
lyrics
CHORUS
Wheels of steel
blades of grass
way I feel
you aint comin' back
The UP boys are working
on a hundred miles of track
by this time tomorrow morning
there'll be no turning back
CHORUS
The sun shines cool and frosty
down the two converging tracks
I hear a distant rumbling
sweat's beading down my back
CHORUS
As the train hit central city
it was swaying side to side
the girls there sure are pretty
there's just one less round to ride
