[00:02.27]Oh yeah, oh no, the train, the train.

[00:04.77]Every 2 or 3 years, the train kills somebody.

[00:08.07]Every 2 or 3 years, yeah.

[00:11.02]Everybody knows about the train,

[00:12.70]OK? You hear it constantly.

[00:17.42]Eh, I— I think the train is a way to find your way out of this life, if you get hit by it

[00:25.04]

[00:43.772] A couple of kids got hit by a Union Pacific train

[00:50.936] Carrying sheet metal and household appliances through the pouring rain

[00:58.726] They were planning on getting married after graduation

[01:02.458] Had a little baby girl, trouble came and shut it down

[01:08.820] Things like that ain't supposed to happen

[01:11.133]

[01:12.811] In this quiet town, families are tight

[01:21.446] Good people, they still don't deadbolt their doors at night

[01:28.665] In this quiet town

[01:29.498]

[01:43.829] When we first heard opioid stories, they were always in whispering tones

[01:52.386] Now banners of sorrow mark the front steps of childhood homes

[01:58.157] Parents wept through daddy's girl eulogies

[02:00.591] And merit badge milestones with their daughters and sons

[02:05.678] Laying there lifeless in their suits and gowns

[02:10.318] Somebody's been keepin' secrets

[02:12.631]

[02:15.114] In this quiet town, they know how to live

[02:22.759] Good people who lean on Jesus, they're quick to forgive

[02:30.316] In this quiet town

[02:31.276]

[02:46.074] Now whenever I'm near the town I'll find some reason to give

[02:53.574] And I will walk with the dead and the living where I used to live

[02:59.984] And every time I see my parents in the prime of their lives

[03:05.280] Offering their son the kind of love he could never put down

[03:12.574] Well, part of me is still that stainless kid, lucky

[03:16.234]

[03:16.730] In this quiet town, salt of the land

[03:24.801] Hard-working people, if you're in trouble, they'll lend you a hand

[03:31.170] Here in this quiet town

[03:35.965]

[04:05.481] The first crop of hay is up

[04:08.459] School let out and the sun beats down

[04:12.954] Smoke billows from a Sunday train

[04:16.191] That cries away from a quiet town
