Mystery Train

Mystery Train
I'm not the biggest Elvis fan, but I did like several of his songs including this one: "Mystery Train"

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_eE0NPArEY

"Train, train comin' 'round, 'round the bend,
Train, train comin' 'round, 'round the bend.
Well it took my baby,
But it never will again, no not again.

Train, train comin' down the line,
Train, Train comin' down the line.
Well, it's bringin' my baby,
'Cause she's mine, all, all mine
She's mine, all, all mine."

*(For Sight and Sound group)

Great shot to go with that song title. I don't think I'd ever heard that song.

isn't it hilarious, to blame the train for taking away your darling....;-(
and then, after a short while, to thank that same train for bringing her back ....;-)

Hahaha, yes, you're right! But I have to assume some length of time went by between the going and coming, lol!

and the old song ... freight train freight train going so fast ... came to mind ;-)
crazy really because its not a freight train ... must be reminiscing at the
moment ;-) .... well taken Val !

Valfal club has replied to beverley
Thanks so much, Bev! What is it about trains that compel many people to create songs about them? Moreover, why do I like most of the songs written about trains??
9 years ago.
beverley has replied to Valfal club
perhaps it is our past ;-) when there were not so many vehicles around
as people could not afford them and trains were the mode of transport
most used apart from trams and buses ... but then again .. do we hear
many songs about trams and buses ;-))) so that knocks that one on
the head .... snzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ;-))))
