When Jesse was a little girl, she only dreamed of trains
|
She never played with dolls or lacy kinds of things
|
Jesse counted boxcars instead of counting sheep
|
She could go anywhere when she went to sleep
|
|
Jesse laid a penny on the track one day
|
In God we trust she walked away
|
The very next morning all she could find
|
Was a little piece of copper squashed flatter than a dime
|
|
Jesse dreamed of trains
|
When the nighttime came
|
Nobody knew how she made it come true
|
Jesse dreamed of trains
