Train train train I've got a thing about trains I get a sad kind of feeling when I see a passenger train In this fast movin' world that we live in nobody rides 'em much these days Maybe I'm a little sentimental cause I know that things have to change But I'd still like to go for a train ride cause I've got a thing about trains
Train train train you're fading from the scene But you've had your days of glory train train train
Train they say you're too slow for travelin' but I'm gonna miss you some day When my little boy says daddy what was it like to ride a train I'll just say it was a good way to travel when things didn't move quite so fast And I'm sorry son that you can't ride one the trains are the thing of the past
Train train train you're fading from the scene And I'm gonna mourn your passing train train train I've got a thing about trains ----- So if you're tired of people and buildings weary of worry and strain Then you ought to go on a train ride and look out the window at things Go for a ride down to Memphis the night train is still right on time
But I read in the papers this mornin' next week they're gonna take it off the line Train train train blow your whistle proudly and loud As you roll to your place in hist'ry train train train I've got a thing about trains #
