When My Work Is Done Lyrics

One day you'll be gone
I know that time will come
Some day I'll follow you
When my work is done
If I was not your little boy
Rolling like a train
Still I'd ride the rails for you
To hell and back again

Heartache's a lonely path
That pulls you 'round the bend
And you find the ones who love you
When you reach the story's end

One day you'll be gone
I know that time will come
Some day I'll follow you
When my work is done
Hardships and broken dreams
Is all you've ever known
Trying to make a better life
And call this house a home

High winds and broken clouds
The angels must have cried
When they saw you gaze at me
With the loving in your eyes

One day you'll be gone
I know that time will come
Some day I'll follow you
When my work is done
That chip upon my shoulder
Is a long and sorry tale
Hold a hammer tight enough
The world looks like a nail

I'm rollin'down the tracks
I'm the little red caboose
I'm chasing all my demons down
So I can sing the blues

One day you'll be gone
I know that time will come
Some day I'll follow you
When my work is done
