MORNING TRAIN TO SOMEWHERE by Colleen Hodgson -Songs of Maggie The shore line of Toronto is a frozen winter swell The hard side of a tavern is a place she knows too well All alone in the morning as the embers die, little robin girl, you're gonna fly She laughed with them sailor boys who tore her gown Snatching up the silver that they liked to toss around She has a budding wing and a beady eye, little robin girl, you're gonna fly Fly to the moon, fly to the stars, Fly to where they understand what you are You can kiss the sun, you can find the one, The one that truly loves you (x 2 ) And though you found her in the snow, pack your carpet bag and go On the morning train........ to somewhere As the branches glisten in the pale winter day Train whistle blowing now, she's on her way On a polar wind across an endless sky Little robin girl, you're going to fly You know you found her in the snow , pack your carpet bag and go On the morning train........ to somewhere
