John Denver - Jesse Dreamed Of Trains lyrics

When jesse was a little girl, she only dreamed of trains She never played with dolls or lacy kinds of things Jesse counted boxcars instead of counting sheep She could go anywhere when she went to sleep Jesse laid a penny on the track one day In God we trust she walked away The very next morning all she could find Was a little piece of copper squashed flatter than a dime Jesse dreamed of trains When the nighttime came Nobody knew how she made it come true Jesse dreamed of trains
