About Railroad Earth:
The six band members came together for the first time in January 2001. Originally composed of vocalist/guitarist/songwriter Todd Sheaffer, violinist/vocalist Tim Carbone, mandolinist John Skehan, multi-instrumentalist Andy Goessling, drummer/vocalist Carey Harmon, and bassist Dave Von Dollen, the six were brought together by manager Brian Ross, who both named the band and assumed management duties prior to their first rehearsals. Things kicked off with the six musicians working on a handful of original songs, mostly written by Sheaffer, the former From Good Homes songwriter, and began to realize that something musically unique was happening. After three weeks of rehearsing, Ross suggested they go into a local recording studio to track a five song demo of the songs he'd been listening to from their rehearsals. Recorded live with no overdubs except backing vocals, this untitled demo set Railroad Earth's career in motion. Within a week, Ross had them shoot a promo photo and sent their demo out to several festival promoters, landing them a slot at Telluride Bluegrass Festival.

Lyrics:
Through this Railroad Earth
for whatever it's worth,
singin' songs and stayin' high
And you know I'll be where my heart feels free
and my thoughts are free to fly
Oh mama, please don't make me lie
I need my freedom, need my open sky
In your socks and shirt
on your bed of dirt,
with the midnight moon on high
And you know I've been where the midnight wind
makes your soul and spirit cry
Oh mama, please don't ask me why
I need my freedom, need my open sky
Through this Railroad Earth
for whatever it's worth,
getting along and getting by
And you know I miss every single kiss
as the years go rollin' by
Oh mama, ain't it good to be alive
when you're mountain toppin', feeling high?
Oh mama, ain't it good to be alive
when you're down and rollin', free to ride?
Oh mama, please don't make me lie
