Everytime I hear the lonesome whistle whine
From a lonesome locomotive, comin' down the line
It carries me back to another place in time
When train travelin' across the land was the only way to flyAm I a fool to think it glamorous
Box carring like a hobo, it must have been rough
But a simple way of life is what it really means to me
When we weren't so dependent on money to be freeI 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 dreamI 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'
Yea, 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 ol' time machine?
Oh, but there you go again train travelin'
Yea, there you go again train travelin'
There you go again train travelin'
