Riding Blinds

 

Verse 1

Towns race past

Beat of the wheels

Fields of lush green

Towns with tall steeples

 

Verse 2

Cannot remember

When I left home

From the day I could walk

I was born to roam

 

Chorus

Been riding blinds

My whole life

Places I have been

Sights I have seen

 

Been in fights

Escaped riots

Sung many a tune

Forgot people I knew

 

Verse 3

With ragged clothes

Worn out shoes

Open doorways

Faces amused

 

Verse 4

We the forgotten

That the ride the trains

We tell the history

Of this great land

 

Chorus

Been riding blinds

My whole life

Places I have been

Sights I have seen

 

Been in fights

Escaped riots

Sung many a tune

Forgot people I knew
