Lyrics"Algoma Central Blues"
Music & Lyrics by Scott Cooley.
There's too much time to think on the Algoma Central Through the middle of such wild stretch of land Past endless woods and lakes on your way back from Wawa, You try to be tough, but you could cry on command It's normal to feel dejected on the Algoma Central Downin’ Labatts as you chug along to beat the band From the middle of nowhere back to the Soo It's so much different than the Rio Grande It's desolate, just like a life with no love It's magnificent, that's why it's no place to be alone Where a melancholy mood gets worse with each moon The northern lights let you know you're so far from home It’s not a bad place for low spirits on the Algoma Central If you want to see a canyon, you can Life's just as empty along the Gichigumee Sometimes getting away from it all can be so bland The rivers run but it’s not much fun along the Algoma Central The Great White North never seems to be a great plan There’s nothing much to do but get out and paddle a canoe What went wrong you won’t ever understand The pain can’t be escaped, on a train when your heart aches It may be bad luck but somehow it always works out the same When the woman you love leaves you, a railway won’t relieve you When you realize you’re the only one to blame
It’s always sad when you ride the Algoma Central At least that’s always how it’s been for me And although it’s a beauty way to go, there’s too much introspection From my lonesome thoughts I just can’t be free Copyright © ℗ 2014 by Scott Cooley. All rights reserved. | undefined
