My old man had a rounder soul

Hed hear an ol freight train and hed have to go

Said hed been blessed with a gypsy bone

And thats the reason

I guess that hed been cursed to roam

Came to town back before the war

Didnt even know what it was he was lookin for

He carried a tattered bag for his violin

Full of lots of songs of the places he had been

He talked real easy and he smiled and waved

He could pass along to you when his fiddle played

Makin people drop their cares and woes

And hum out loud the tunes that his fiddle bowed

Til the people there began to join that sound

And evryone in town was laughin singin dancin round

Like the Fiddlers tunes we all there heard that night

Like some dream that says all the world is right

The Fiddlers eye caught a beauty there

She had that rollin flowin golden kind of hair

He played for her as if she danced alone

He played his favorite songs

The ones he called his own

She alone was dancin in the room

The only thing left movin to that Fiddlers tune

He played until she was the last to go

The he stopped and packed his case

Said hed take her home

In all the nights that passed a child was born

In all the years that passed

Love would keep them warm

And all their lives theyd share

That dream come true

And all because she danced so well

His fiddler tune

The train next mornin blew a lonesome sound

As if she sang the blues of what she took from town

And all that I recall that was said when I was young

Theres no one else could really sing those songs he sung
