Train Travelin'

Every time I hear the whistle whine

From a lonesome locomotive comin' down the line

It carries my mind away to another place in time

When train travelin' across the land was the only way to fly

Am I a fool to think it glamorous?

Box carring like a hobo, it must have been rough

But a simpler way of life is what it really means to me

When we weren't so dependent on money to be free

I hear you train, are you travelin' my way?

Won't you let me ride your rails right back to yesterday?

Who knows what I could see from that old time machine?

But there you go again train travelin'

There you go again train travelin'

I'm lyin' on a rotten wooden floor

Smell yesterday's whiskey here rattlin' at the door

A railroad man lookin' for me, I'm scared as I can be

I open my eyes and realize it's just another dream

I hear you train, are you travelin' my way?

Won't you let me ride your rails right back to yesterday?

Who knows what I could see from that old time machine?

But, there you go again train travelin'

Yeah, there you go again train travelin'

I hear you train, are you travelin' my way?

Won't you let me ride your rails right back to yesterday?

Who knows what I could see from that old time machine?

Oh, but there you go again train travelin'

Yeah, there you go again train travelin'

There you go again train travelin'
