Waylon Jennings — Silver Ribbons

[Verse 1] Traveling down this lonesome railroad Silver Ribbons with no ends A million miles a crossties mark a million miles I've been I've picked peaches down in Georgia apples up in Maine Pulled cotton out in Texas riding on the train I was just a lad of seventeen my daddy turned me loose Silver Ribbons calling me engine and caboose I can't recall my mother she left when I was two Brunets blondes and red heads were the only love I knew [Chorus] Don't ask me where I'm going don't ask me where I've been Those Silver Ribbons will take me there there and back again One more time back again [Verse 2] Traveling to the tune of freight wheels is such a lonely sound Hear that lonesome whistle blow as leaving another town I wish someone was waiting somewhere to welcome me Then those Silver Ribbons would see no more of me Don't ask me where I'm going... [Chorus]
