I remember the railroad

I see the travelers comin'
i watch them rollin' down the line
i see the transits movin'
i remember the railroad line.
I see some smilin' faces
common place like they've peace of mind.
so many different places
i remember there's more than one kind.
From a place that i can call my home
down the road that i must call my own
i see no easy way
(but) today i've got to say
i don't mind seeing what i'm being shown
So i see the jet planes flying
i watch them out of sight
i keep on what i'm tryin'
hoping that time will treat me right
i remember the railroad line.
