Lyrics:
this town 'cause you don't treat 'em right.
Oh, take a train (take a train), fly by plane (fly by plane),
Yeah, gettin' tired (gettin' tired), sick
I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ev'r since
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know
disguise
Come back baby
If I hurt your feelings, I apologize
Two trains running side by side, forty miles wide
Down the eastern line
You don't have to go, I
this town 'cause you don't treat 'em right.
Oh, take a train (take a train), fly by plane (fly by plane),
Yeah, gettin' tired (gettin' tired), sick
connect
one by one
Whooshing whooshing
Super fast train
Running so fast every day
Whooshing whooshing
Super fast train
Hey
Rolling rolling
down
night nothing but a stray dog running wild like nobody's child.
And little by little, light after light, that's how it died.
They say you never go
Band

Running after subway trains
Running after subway trains
Running after subway trains
Last Sunday morning,
and brother
And I dreamed about the girl who's been waiting for long.
I want to go home, I want to go home
Oh, how I want to go home.
Home folks think
oppressors (This train)
This train carry no oppressors
Only to carry Jah Jah chosen
Chosen brothers an' sister
Woah oh oh, oh oh oh (This train)
Don't you know
fields and home,
I dreamed about my mother, dear old papa, sister and brother,
And I dreamed about that girl, who's been waitin' for so long
I want
I was born by the river in a little tent
No just like that river I've been running ever since
It's been a long a long time coming
But I know
suspicious that something is wrong
No explanation why it lasts so long
And by the look on your face, everybody knows
You can't deny that you feel exposed
If my old truck was a horse I'd have to shoot it
Lord, the day my ship came in I was waiting for a train
Every time I get a grip I always lose it
hear us now, we ain't wastin' time no more
'Cause time rolls by like hurricanes
Runnin' after the subway train
Don't forget the pourin' rain
Dylan
Two blue steel trains running through the tunnels of your cool blue steel eyes
To guide me far from the world of my early days
That I cant
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
I dreamed about them cotton fields of home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old pappy, sister and brother
a ticket and the train leaves by quarter to four
I can see her now with the great big eyes waitin' at the station door
Ain't that fine ain't that fine
wearing
My long pants and we was sharing
Conversation with a man
Who sold ball-point pens and paper
And the train stopped once in Clifton
Where my aunt
fields at home.
I dreamed about my mother,
Dear old Papa, Sister and brother,
I dreamed about that girl
Who's been waiting for so long.
I want to go
I was born by the river in a little tent
And just like the river, I've been running ever since
It's been a long time coming
But I know a change
I was born by the river in a little tent
And just like that river I've been running ever since
It's been a long time coming
But I know a change
Would you please bury it in the fields?
I seen a rose
Watchin' it all fold out
There's a train down at the station
It's come to carry my bones away
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
I dreamed about them cotton fields of home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old pappy, sister and brother
This for all my niggas in the city
But this shit really for Queens though
Really for Queens though!
Big city of dreams, motivated by schemes
Gettin'
