Train Song

Hop that train, it would feel so good

traveling down that steel

track

Breeze against my face

Take me far away

I’m never coming

back

Slip and slide

Drift and glide

I’d have some fun in that wheeled horse

Leave behind my luxuries

Like climbing up an apple tree

I listen to the rhythm of the train

I can hear the sound so far away

Smell of tar on my bare feet

and the pretty summer day

Feels like an angel sits beside me

I feel so safe

I can hear

the whistle blowing

A train is coming my way

I can hear the sound of a whistle blowing

I can hear it as I play

I listen to the rhythm of the train

I can hear the sound so far away

Coming towards as far as I can see

With a blade of grass between my teeth

Is that swir-ir-ving motion

Like a picture on a movie screen

Clippity clop

Tick tock

And the hush hush of my jeans

The thrill of passing passion

As it bursts it’s way past me to a dream

I listen to the rhythm of the train

I can hear the sound so far away
