Lyrics:
some time
Thought I might go on by when your memory came flooding in and you closed that door
Wish I was a freight train, baby
Wish I was a diesel
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill he sounds too blue to fly
That midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry
I've never seen a night so
You put me on a morning train
Hey, hey, Brother Ray
What'd you mean by, what'd I say
You put me on a morning train
You put me on a morning train
the unemployed who simply wanted a change of weather
And during the period of Jimmie's greatest popularity
You could set your watch by the highbawl of any train
like a neon train
Bolt of lightning in the night
Speed of light, you won't realize
You've been struck 'til you see the flame
Her smile'll slash you
Train tracks, clapboard bar
Green grass, wheat field farm
Three-digit population sign
Pirate on the 50-yard line
White church, a water tower
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome I could cry
I've never seen a night
When the train, it left the station, with two lights on behind
When the train, it left the station, with two lights on behind
Well, the blue light was
train
After the lights go down
I live out in the woods now
It helps me keep my feet on the ground
Life's been good to me so far
Hope it's been kind
When the train, it left the station, with two lights on behind
When the train, it left the station, with two lights on behind
Well, the blue light was
Billy, he's down by the railroad tracks
Sittin' low in the back seat of his Cadillac
Diamond Jackie, she's so intact
And she falls so softly
Woo, he's watchin' the choo choo,
Woo, he watchin' the train!
Watchin' the trains go by, watchin' the trains go by
Wish I had the ticket that I
When the train, it left the station, with two lights on behind
When the train, it left the station, with two lights on behind
Well, the blue light was
the train, it left the station
Two lights on behind
Well, the train, it left the station
With two lights on behind
Well, the blue light was my blues
The red
the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Is just a freight train coming your way
Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Is
Land of the free
But the skin I'm in identifies me
So the people around me
Energize me
Callin' all aboard this train ride
Talkin' 'bout raw
Take the last train to Clarksville
And I'll meet you at the station
You can be there by 4:30
'Cause I've made your reservation
Don't be slow
Oh no no
When the train pulls in the station you'll be waiting by the track
You're havin' trouble sleepin' nights you want me to come back
But that old
train, train train train hey !
"Hey that's a neat tatoo you're wearing. By the way where'd you get it ?
Uh huh. Say, is this an express train ? Uh huh.
Billy, he's down by the railroad tracks
Sittin' low in the back seat of his Cadillac
Diamond Jackie, she's so intact
And she falls so softly
Black earth trembles when the trains go by
Bums on the corner tell you gently crawl up and die
Well, I lost my girl and I missed my train to Ride
And I'm
the good life passes by
It's all the dreams that never came true
'Cause you're too damn scared to try
Hit the lights
Let the music move you
Lose yourself
hours ago from then
No, and I don't know what to do
I'm drawing crazy patterns on my shoe
And the sand in the hourglass slips on by
So light
hemisphere!
Skimbleshanks the Railway cat, the cat of the railway train
You might say that by and large it was me who was in charge
Of the Sleeping Car Express
