from Soho down to Arkansas
A
Every stop along the way,
D
G
they promised him a rubber ball.
D
A
The train he rode, it had no plan,
G
no families waiting on the way.
G
and tried to give the child away.
D
A
I can't imagine what was told,
G
my little grandpa on that train.
D
A
Was he lost in someone's lies,
G
or was he hiding all that pain?
A
Eddie rode the orphan train
D
G
from Soho down to Arkansas.
A
Every stop along the way,
D
G
they made him stand against the wall.
D
A
Ed die landed on a farm,
G
a lonely boy works like a man.
D

They trained him well to earn his keep,
G
a child of God should work the land.

Eddie worked as the only son,

an unexpected child was born
D

A baby boy with ice blue eyes
and he showed no scorn

The family aged, the children grew,
G
the foster parents' time didn't wane
D
A
Then when they read out the will,
G
there was no Eddie Orphan Train
A
Eddie rode the orphan train
D
G
from Soho town to Arkansas
A
Every stop along the way,
D
G
he lay down in a bed of straw.
D
It's hard to guess where
G
deep inside an orphan child.
D
A
But Eddie somehow raised his kids
detached and mild.
D
A
He passed on a long way,
G
the papers hardly gave his name
D
A
Except to say he was survived
G
by a family and an orphan train
A
Eddie rode the orphan train
D
G
from Soho down New Arkansas
A
And he lived a long life,
