[02:35.00]The Baggage Coach Ahead - Mac Wiseman
[02:35.00]On a dark stormy night
[02:35.00]As the train rattled on
[02:35.00]All the passengers
[02:35.00]Had gone to bed
[02:35.00]Except one young man
[02:35.00]With a babe in his arms
[02:35.00]Who sat there with a
[02:35.00]Bowed down head
[02:35.00]The innocent do one
[02:35.00]Began crying
[02:35.00]As though it's poor heart
[02:35.00]Would break
[02:35.00]Make that child stop it's noise
[02:35.00]One angry man said
[02:35.00]For it's keeping all of us awake
[02:35.00]Put it out said another
[02:35.00]Don't keep it in here
[02:35.00]We've paid for our berths
[02:35.00]And want rest
[02:35.00]But never a word
[02:35.00]Said the man with the child
[02:35.00]As he fondled it
[02:35.00]Close to his breast
[02:35.00]Where is it's mother
[02:35.00]Go take it to her
[02:35.00]This a lady then softly said
[02:35.00]I wish that I could
[02:35.00]Was the man's sad reply
[02:35.00]But she's dead
[02:35.00]In the coach ahead
[02:35.00]While the train rolled onward
[02:35.00]A husband sat in tears
[02:35.00]Thinking of the happiness
[02:35.00]Of just a few short years
[02:35.00]Baby's face
[02:35.00]Brings pictures of
[02:35.00]A cherished hope
[02:35.00]That's dead
[02:35.00]But baby's cries
[02:35.00]Can't waken her
[02:35.00]In the baggage
[02:35.00]Coach ahead
