The Rankin Family - Orangedale Whistle lyrics

The stationmaster looked all around Along the track both up and down But the train could not be found For there was neither sight or sound There was neither sight or sound He walked on slowly to the station door like so many times before He looked outside into a sunshine beam Closed his eyes and dreamed a dream Drifted off into a dream The winds of change forever blow Some things stay and some things go The falling rain must melt the snow The orangedale whistle will always blow Years ago throughout this land That line was laid by able men But things are changed as time goes by People drive and people fly People drive and people fly The stationmaster is long since gone He faded off into the sun But the whistle shrill still lingers on In the hearts of everyone Everyday from dusk till dawn The winds of change forever blow Some things stay and some things go The falling rain must melt the snow The orangedale whistle will always blow
