Whippoorwills and Freight Trains - Trace Adkins

Lonely, can’t lay a finger on me

When you’re in my arms

And my demons are finally lost behind me

Can’t even find me in the dark

Your lips are like a kiss of sunshine

In the pouring down rain

And when you whisper my name I hear anything

But whippoorwills and freight trains

I don’t miss that midnight whistle waking me

And taking me back through the pain

And I don’t hear that lonesome cry

Outside my window every night

Driving me insane

Ain’t no fighting back tears

Every time I hear

Whipporwills and freight trains

Silence is like a bullet from a rifle

Aimed straight at my heart

Triggered by those echoes in the distance

That used to hit me so hard

But when you lie by my side in peaceful dreams

Moonlight on your face

Girl, I can drift away and sleep safe

From whippoorwills and freight trains

I don’t miss that midnight whistle waking me

And taking me back through the pain

And I don’t hear that lonesome cry

Outside my window every night

Driving me insane

Ain’t no fighting back tears

Every time I hear

Whipporwills and freight trains

No I don’t miss that midnight whistle waking me

And taking me back through the pain

And I don’t hear that lonesome cry

Outside my window every night

Driving me insane

Ain’t no fighting back tears

Every time I hear

Whipporwills and freight trains

Whipporwills and freight trains

I hate whipporwills and freight trains
