Baby Songs: My Baby Thinks Hes a Train

The weekend is here! More foliage! And where’s that dang hoodie I bought last year at the Red Skelton Museum?? I got my doctors appointments out of the way today, and after the optometrist’s visit on Monday I’ll be good to go! Here’s another song with “baby” in the title for you to kick off the weekend.

(Johnny always had a segment on his TV show called “Ride This Train.”) Rosanne probably got a break or two at the beginning because she is Johnny’s daughter, but two or three lines into the great song “Seven Year Ache” you realize she didn’t need a break. She has plenty of talent on her own. My Baby Thinks He’s a Train Written by Leroy Preston Recorded by Rosanne Cash From Seven Year Ache, 1981 Choo choo ain’t just some train sound:
