Old Toy Trains



When I was a little whippersnapper it was pure hell trying to get me to go to bed on Christmas Eve. It was either youthful anticipation or the early stages of sheer materialistic greed. Probably the latter.

I never got a toy train set for Xmas. Still waiting on that elephant, too. Roger Miller feels my pain, man. And I feel his. Which isn't as dirty as it sounds. There's a sense of sadness mixed with wonder running through the following tune. Something lost?

Here then is Mountain fab fave Roger Miller bringing the toys for the tots.
