My father's train
If you can spare me some minutes, I'll sing you a song
about my father and the train he drove once upon a time
He drove through forests, along farmland and lakes
We lived at Linna. Father worked at the Railways
Late at night, during sunset or in the dark
we could hear a whistle somewhere behind the hill
Mother went busy, the instruction was clear
get dinner on the table, it's father's train
Early in the morning 4.30 a.m. or before
he prepared the day's meals and went through the door
Winter, summer, autumn or spring
the life of my father was guided by that train
He sweated and sweared as long as the day
Get up the steam of the engine, keep the wheels spinning round
Get ready with the cargo, this goes too slow
Cover the train, it soon will be rain
The time of which I'm singing, is a time long ago
The train is gone and my father is too
But I know that one day, all will be as it was
when I'm hearing the whistle of my father's train
Soon I'll be hearing the whistle of my father's train

This band recorded 1 album in 1968 and then faded into obscurity. To their surprise they found out they had become a cult favorite 40 yrs later.

say there hooblie, apparently you've got pretty good instincts
hey there Tobia, Leon was number two until Lou came along and ... some guy dribbled the San Diego Rock 'n' Roll Marathon (two basketballs) in 4:20.
Some other best friends of Harold.

zb,
Sis in law fouled out Sunday with a 4:56:08 finish; got shorted out in Boston making the turn from Commonwealth when the fuse was lit; not sure what she's doing next (might need to give it a rest).
