A woman dropped her baby in the locks of an iron horse 27 years ago
No one heard her screams no one heard her cries no one even needed to know
She dove down to save that child neither one mead it out alive
Now once a year at the stroke of 12 you can hear the screams and cries
Me and a couple buddies of mine were playin gon the railroad tracks
Shooting old beer cans with a red ryder knowing we'ed make it back
We sat down to take a short break and i found an empty bottle of wine
Then we heard a sound like a chill to the bone it was that womans cries
