ฟังเพลงChild Of The Engineer

A little child on a sickbed lay

And death was very near

The parents' pride and the only child

Of a railroad engineer

His duty called him from those he loved

And the house whose light was dimmed

Ah the tears he shed to his Wife he said

I will have two lanterns trimmed

Just hang a light by my window tonight

And hang it where it can be seen

If our baby's dead just hang the red

If she's better then hang the green

In a little house by the railroad side

A mother with watchful eye

Saw a gleam of hope and a feeble smile

As the train went rushing by

Just one short look was his only chance

To see the light agleam

In the midnight there arose a pray'r

Thank My God light was green
