[Verse 1]
I was ridin' on a train to Austin, Texas
When a very lovely lady sat next to me
When she got up to eat
She asked if I would hold her seat
I was more than happy to
And now there's more I'd like to do
[Chorus]
I wanna kiss her but
She won't let me
I wanna whisper sweet nothin's in her (r)ear
I wanna hold her behind... closed doors and more
I wanna kiss her but
She won't let me
[Verse 2]
When she returned, she said she was an actress
She showed me an album of pictures of her opening
Which she'd been sittin' on
She seemed as sweet as she could be
But I could clearly see
She was the kinda girl who stole men's hearts
Then wrecked 'em
[Chorus]
I wanna kiss her but
She won't let me
I wanna whisper sweet nothin's in her (r)ear
I wanna hold her behind... closed doors and more
I wanna kiss her but
She won't let me
[Verse 3]
Well, I'll never forget that train ride down to Austin
We shared a seat and we shared our 'tales'
But as my heart tries to leave her behind
Regrets are all I find
'Cause I'd hoped I'd get that girl
In the end
[Chorus]
I wanna kiss her but
She won't let me
I wanna whisper sweet nothin's in her (r)ear
I wanna hold her behind... closed doors and more
I wanna kiss her but
I wanna kiss her but
I wanna kiss her but
She won't let me
