Across the county line

I wrote this today what ya recon?

Across the county line:

Freight train coming on down the line
Oh that freight train coming on down the line
its the 23.07, stops at the county line

aw I'm running, running up the line
aw I'm running, running up the line
gona hobo my way down,catch that train and ride

Jumping freight cars, free way to ride
Jumping freight cars, free way to ride
got my roll and my guitar, find the best place to hide

Oh I'm a travelling man, travel place to place
Oh I'm a travelling man, travel place to place
In the next town baby, no one knows my face

Freight train, coming down the line
oh that freight train, coming down the line
Gona get me to Chicargo , and across the county line

Comment by Uncle John on May 13, 2013 at 4:17am: Good song and vintage seeming lyrics. I love the way you make new classics.

Comment by Diglydog on May 12, 2013 at 8:37pm: Fantastic - cool song. Sounds better without the imposter on rhythm !

That'd be a neat amp mod :-)
