[Verse 1]
Every time I hear the sound of a train
Coming down that railroad track
I get that faraway look in my eye
And I'd like to throw my hammer down
And take off to some distant town
And not even take the time to say goodbye
I've got to think about my babies
About my job and my old lady
And how much she'd miss me if I was gone
And I love them more than anything
But I got this feeling near by trains
And sometimes I wish I was on that train and gone
[Chorus]
That train keeps a-rolling down the track
Bringing my old memories back
Making hobo blood boil in my veins
Reviving my old love affair with trains
[Verse 2]
The nights ain't never long enough
My wife keeps saying "you get up
For you'll be late to work and miss your ride"
I grab my dinner bucket up
And jump on the back of your pickup truck
And I wonder if I'll jump that train tonight
Every time I hear the sound of a train
Coming down that railroad track
I get that faraway look in my eye
And I'd like to throw my hammer down
And take off to some distant town
And not even take the time to say goodbye
I've got to think about my babies
About my job and my old lady
And how much she'd miss me if I was gone
And I love them more than anything
But I got this feeling near by trains
And sometimes I wish I was on that train and gone
[Chorus]
That train keeps a-rolling down the track
Bringing my old memories back
Making hobo blood boil in my veins
Reviving my old love affair with trains
[Verse 2]
The nights ain't never long enough
My wife keeps saying "you get up
For you'll be late to work and miss your ride"
I grab my dinner bucket up
And jump on the back of your pickup truck
And I wonder if I'll jump that train tonight
