about

"Ghost Train of Myersville" is a mind bending song about the haunted thoughts of a resident in an old town with a tragic past. The story comes with a warning to heed the sound of a phantom train approaching on a certain night of the year.

lyrics

Just past the wheat field on the edge of town there is an old set of tracks that are rusted in the ground.
They are from an old rail line that used to pass through but now the town is old & dusty & it’s broken down.
There was a tragedy one fateful night back in the 1929 when the town was full and bright.
The train came speeding and then blasted off the tracks killing everyone at the station, and it caused an awful wreck.

There is a certain time of year & a certain time of night when the Ghost Train of Myersville decides to shine its light. You can hear it blaring from the hills like howling from the dead. The sound of the train coming will fill your heart with dread.

I am drawn to the tracks like others before me to get a firsthand look of it pass by before your very eyes
I heard the tale from when I was child and now that that Ghost Train of Myersville won't leave my mind alone.
If you are out there on that dark & star filled night you may not stay alive for that's the moment you could die.
It likes to take souls on its travel through this realm we never know where it goes
Back to Hell? Maybe so,

They'll find your body on the tracks in the morning light. With no explanation as to why you died that night. So, on February 3rd stay clear of the tracks, don't even go near, for the Ghost Train of Myersville may come back.
