Old Train Lyrics

This song was first released on the all aboard! album. it is the only album it has been released on.

Old train, I can hear your whistle blow
And I want to be jumping on again
Old train, I've been everywhere you go
And I know what lies beyond each bend

Old train, each time you pa*s
You're older than the last
And it seems I'm too old for running
I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails
They cry with every mile
And I think I'll stay awhile

Old train, I grow weary at the miles
And I miss the freedom that was mine
Old train, just to think about those times
I'll smile when you're highballing by

Old train, each time you pa*s
You're older than the last
And it seems I'm too old for running
I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails
They cry with every mile
And I think I'll stay awhile
