I'm sitting in the railway station.
Got a ticket for my destination.
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.
And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band.


Homeward bound

Virgil Caine is the name and I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell
It's a time I remember, oh so well

The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the people were singing
They went, "Na,na,na...''

Rock Island Line

This is a story about a toll gate on a railroad.

A toe-rag fools the depot agent into letting him through the toll gate without paying.
He tells the agent that he's got livestock aboard which doesn't attract a tariff.
When he's gone through the toll gate without paying, he admits that the train is laden with metal, and boasts about it into the bargain.

Which is most unseemly.

''Cat's in the cupboard but he don't see me'' - indeed.
