[Verse] 772, ghost on the tracks, long gone Iron horse screamin', banshee's mournful song 1899, history in steel and steam Left behind, forgotten in a railroad dream [Verse 2] Sisters saved from the scrapper's blade 769, 870, 874, they got it made But 772, dusted off the map Lost in the fog, memories in the scrap [Chorus] Railroad banshee, whisper in the night Echoes of wheels, ghostly delight Santa Fe shadows, untold tales Banshee ridin' lost on the rails [Verse 3] Steel bones, rusted and worn Glory days of yore, now tattered and torn Steam whistle cries, an eerie wail Banshee rides alone, haunting the rail [Bridge] Can't bring back what's left behind Rust 'n' dirt, buried in time Rails remember what the mind forgets 772’s legacy still begets [Verse 4] Old engines glow in metallic light Ghostly figures on a moonlit night 772's tale, lost to the breeze Wheels rollin’ on eternal steel seas
