Lyrics:
haul freight train
Burnt by fire
Without trial like a stowaway
And don't say you're over me
When they all know that you ain't
If you lay down
someone
That you've never met as far as you could tell, well
Laura is the face in the misty light
Footsteps that you hear down the hall
The laugh that
love you
Well, I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincere
The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think
Oh, by the way,
On a warm summer's evening
On a train bound for nowhere
I met up with the gambler
We were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a-starin'
Out
on pills in limbo
She's a woman on a train
With her senses sharpened by the warning cold
She brings me to memory
She flashes her lights, her mission
to new heights
By a brown man
Incandescent light
Was invented to give sight
By the white man
We pledge allegiance
All our lives
To the magic
Trains and boats and planes are passing by
They mean a trip to Paris or Rome
To someone else but not for me
The trains and boats and planes
Took
And over in the teacher's home she waited by the phone
For calls which never rang, and people who never sang
Train man rambled dusty into town
La la la la ...
You're not only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy
You're not the only choo-choo train that was left out in the rain
On a train from Paris to Amsterdam
Windows frame a blurred countryside
Becoming a bit absent minded
A touch of madness aside
A brush with madness
Tulare dust in a farm boy's nose
Wondering where the freight train goes
Standin' in the field by the railroad track
Cursin' this strap on my
catch light
Only when he gives me, makes me feel alright
My baby takes the morning train, he works from nine till five and then
He takes another home
Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room
I'm a man of means by no means, king of the road
Third boxcar, midnight train, destination Bangor, Maine
Old
know time heals nothing by itself.
I see that ever so clearly now.
The lights had just gone out at Rockefeller Center.
Take it slow and make it
on the last train home again
The last train home again
This is the last song played in vain
The last song played in vain
You're on the last train home again
La la la la
You're not only cuddly toy that was ever enjoyed by any boy
You're not the only choo-choo train that was left out in the rain
The day
lights from the wrong side of the tracks
Christmas lights
Go by in the houses
Anonymous windows
Anonymous rooms of
Anonymous souls
So take my hand
They've tied your hands and tied your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane, a nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine,
For that glory bound train?
Oh, will you ride? Oh, will you ride?
Will you ride that train to glory by and by?
All the headlights will be gleaming,
crackerjack mail
There's a train out for dreamland
It's run by a chocolate brown bear
It runs around a candy mountain
As it sails through the air
the weather was howling
And oh, oh, my my
When that train comes rolling by
No paper thin walls, no folks above
No one else can hear
The crazy cries
They said he'd be here by ten-thirty
Said he was comin' back to his roots again
To finds some old friends
The night that Tito played
My life
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
Minute after minute,
Second after second,
Hour after hour goes by,
Working for a rich girl,
I told her to leave me alone
That's what she's done, just what she's done
And a house built for two, ain't a home
When it's lived in by one, one
