Track Insight / Lyrics

Carbon arc cuts the heavy air Boxcar sides turn silver bare Switchman's lantern swings low and red Fog swallows up the track ahead Reel spins out a western town Light paints the ties on frozen ground Silver in the fog tonight Catching on the rails of light He cranks the handle frame by frame Calling boxcars by their name Silver in the fog tonight Coffee black as creosote ties Steam rises where the signal lies He threads the gate with practiced ease Knuckle split by nitrate freeze The feature starts a damsel tied To tracks where phantom engines sighed Silver in the fog tonight Catching on the rails of light He cranks the handle frame by frame Calling boxcars by their name Silver in the fog tonight Changeover cue a cigarette burn Flares brief where the drive gears turn He thinks of Sally at the grill Flipping eggs against the chill Her laugh cuts the projector whine Salt and grease on checkered twine Silver in the fog tonight Catching on the rails of light He cranks the handle frame by frame
