There was a sign by the Androscoggin River in Topsham, Maine, warning that the water could rise suddenly due to operations at the nearby hydroelectric dam. That sign inspired this song, which is less a train song than a collection of metaphors for trouble. This was one of two songs I wrote for the Cowlix; the Boarders' ominous treatment befits the theme of the song. Copyright © 1994 by Douglas L. Hubley. All rights reserved.
