Chorus
Riding the backtracks of America
Looking over fences into her backyards
Glimpsing my past with every mile we pass
Conductor take it slow. This feeling I know.
Will bring me back to the backtracks of home.
Verse I
I remember shopping at the old five and dime.
And the second floor treasures of toys I'd find.
And out on Main Street the unforgiving summer heat.
Could hit you like a brick off the bleached concrete.
- To Chorus -
Verse II
I remember winters on our snowy two-lane road.
Few cars would pass by our brown tin-roofed home.
The snow piled high; the trees hung low.
The stillness and quiet I'll never again know.
-Chorus-
Bridge
Iced tea and cool-aid
Hand-cranked ice cream
Watermelon on the front porch
Swinging statues in the orchard.
