Well, once I knew a railway girl Her age was 17 I gave her all I had to give But the baggage of my dreamsStole me from the games we played Scorned me for my mask And if she's gone she lingers on I beg you please don't ask'Twas on a dark March evening Southbound I did ride My head was out the window When I found her at my sideAsked where I was goin' to I told but where I came For the jails in which I've done my time I fail hard to regainDark girl, dark girl it kills me so To watch you so afraid You know that you've been real to those Whom realness should be paidHer eyes gone wide, "Alive!" she cried "Does pleasure ever last?" We live to see but patiently I beg you please don't askShe took me in despite my sins Fed me tea and such And as she fell just like a child I crumbled 'neath her touchI held my breath and feared to weep For the fragments of my brain See, each day's but a moment that I fail hard to regainBut as it goes the fiddler throws Our values to the street Whole world's pain stains his gaze Impatience in his feetAnd captives of this paltry trade We curse our mortal task Forgive us though, we all must go And where to please don't askAnd now I am a misspent man Who knows not where he's been And oh-so-sapped with sufferin' The worst is yet unseenRenounce myself for further wealth I take each breath in vain Still haunted by that railway girl I fail hard to regain
