G
Leaving in a cloud of burning cinders,
C
cinders from a fire of love gone out.
 F                                A#
Never looking back when she's highballin',
            F                            A#
she's the daughter of a railroad man no doubt.

Wakin' in a new bed every morning,
breakin' in a new heart every night.
Up and running while the world is sleeping,
she's the daughter of a railroad man, alright.

Chorus:
        A#
She is long and sleek and made for movin',
she's outward bound at any time she can.
     D#                            A#
She won't be staying long in any station,
                         F        A#
she's the daughter of a railroad man.

Cries out in the night when she gets lonely,
you can bet she won't be lonely long.
On down the line someone waits her arrival
and the daughter of a railroad man is gone.
