Lyrics

Cookie cutter by the rail track
Walk the line, take me back
Life was simple and secure
Everlasting and sure
Just one story from this world
Yellow paged and corner curled

Daddy don’t let the wheels stop turning
Momma’s in the back, her eyes still burning
Your dash lit face set hard as stone
Daddy don’t let the wheels stop turning
All these years and now I’m learning
To finally find my way home

Friday night comics and candy
Cards for coppers Saturday
Sunday bath, weekly shine
One more tale ‘fore bedtime
Just one story from this world
Yellow paged and corner curled

Daddy don’t let the wheels…

Wednesday’s child so full of woe
Every knot a double bow
Ties that bind and won’t let go
Hold my hand forever, ever

Now the track is long gone
Packed away, built upon
‘Cross the divide back in time
Every step I walk the line
A precious stone, a picture torn
Broken promises you’d sworn

Daddy don’t let the wheels…
