The Train is Comin' - Scott Urgola

Way over by the tracks lying on my back
Waiting for a sound hummin’ through the ground
Rollin’ clear and loud there you are

The train is comin’ the train is comin’ ride another mile with me
The train is comin’ the train is comin’ ride another mile with me

Lets jump onto a car straight away and far
Never thinkin’ twice stompin’ on thin ice
Grippin’ to the sides here we are

The train is comin’ the train is comin’ ride another mile with me
The train is comin’ the train is comin’ ride another mile with me

Sweet pretty little thing stowaway with me
Rest your head and sing floatin’ down a string
Whistle blowin’ loud looks to be

The train is comin’ the train is comin’ ride another mile with me
The train is comin’ the train is comin’ ride another mile with me

I’d rather be poor I’d rather not save
I’d rather be free I’d rather not slave
I’d rather keep on then ever be done
I’d rather take off then sit in the sun

The train is comin’ the train is comin’ ride another mile with me
The train is comin’ I hear the whistle blowin’ ride another mile with me
