[C]
If you will listen, [F] a song [C] I will sing, About my daddy who ran a [G] log train.
[C] Way down in the south land, [F] in old [C] Alabama, We lived in a place [G] that they called [C] Chapman Town.
And late in the evening, [F] when the sun [C] was low, Way off in the distance, you could hear
the [G] train blow.
[C] The folks would come running, and [F] mama [C] would say, Get the supper on the table, [G] here comes
the [C] log train.
Every morning at the [F] break [C] of day, He'd grab his lunch bucket and be on his [G] way.
[C]
Winter or summer, [F] sunshine [C] or rain, Every morning he'd run [G] that old [C] log train.
Sweating and swearing [F] all day [C] long, Shouting get up there oxen, keep [G] moving along.
[C] Load her up boys, cause it [F] looks [C] like rain, I've got to get rolling, [G] this old [C] log train.
This story happened [F] a long [C] time ago, The log train is silent, God calls [G] dad to go.
[C] But when I get to heaven, to [F] always [C] remain, I'll listen for the whistle [G] on the old [C] log train.
