[Verse 1]
E A
Leaving in a cloud of burning cinders,
E A
cinders from a fire of love gone out.
D
Never looking back when she's highballin',
E A
she's the daughter of a railroad man no doubt.
[Verse 2]
E A
Wakin' in a new bed every morning,
E A
breakin' in a new heart every night.
D
Up and running while the world is sleeping,
E A
she's the daughter of a railroad man, alright.
[Chorus]
D A
She is long and sleek and made for movin',
E A
she's outward bound at any time she can.
D A
She won't be staying long in any station,
E A
she's the daughter of a railroad man.
[Verse 3]
E A
Cries out in the night when she gets lonely,
E A
you can bet she won't be lonely long.
D
On down the line someone waits her arrival
E A
and the daughter of a railroad man is gone.
[Chorus]
D A
She is long and sleek and made for movin',
E A
she's outward bound at any time she can.
D A E A
She won't be staying long in any station, She's the daughter of a railroad man.
