4 - Across the Border

[00:41.53] In the heat of the day many miles away

[00:44.78] When the sun is beating down upon the main street

[00:51.28] I'll be waiting here at the station,

[00:55.03] I gotta move down the line.

[00:58.03] They'll be dancin' and singin' and doin' their thing

[01:01.53] And they'll be rockin' and rollin' until the day is done.

[01:08.28] You know I got to make the deadline.

[01:12.03] I gotta get that southbound train tonight,

[01:18.53] If I don't get to the border then I'll write.

[01:46.02] The Mardi Gras will be blowing strong

[01:49.03] And the people dancing all across the city.

[01:56.28] I'm leaving here tonight,

[01:59.53] Gotta move down the line.

[02:02.77] I'm gonna catch a ride on the 9:05,

[02:05.78] I'm gonna ride the rails until we reach the morning,

[02:12.53] maybe three or four hundred miles.

[02:15.78] I gotta get that southbound train tonight,

[02:22.53] If I don't get to the border then I'll write.

[02:55.53] When the wind is blowing

[02:56.53] Softly through the streets

[02:59.04] Of a little town and the music's playin

[03:04.78] You're waiting somewhere over the horizon.

[03:07.78] I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.

[03:14.53] If I don't get to the border then I'll write.
