Everytime I hear the whistle whine From a lonesome locomotive, comin down the line It carries me mind away to another place in time When train travelin across the land was the only way to fly Am I a fool to think it glamorous Box-Carring like a hobo, it must have been rough But a simpler way of life is what it really means to me When we weren't so dependent on money to be free R: 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 ole time machine But there you go again train travelin', There you go again train travelin'. I'm lying 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 dream R: (2x) There you go again train travelin'.
