It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry

[Verse 1]
Well I ride in my train babe
Can’t buy a thrill
Well I’ve been up all night leaning on the windowsill
Well if I die up on top of the hill
If I don’t make it I hope my baby will
Don’t look good mama shinin’ through the trees
Don’t the brakeman look good mama ragging down the double hill
Don’t the sign look good going down over the sea
Don’t my gal look fine when she’s coming after me

[Verse 2]
Now the winter time is coming windows are filled with frost
I went to tell everybody but I could not get across
I wanna be your lover baby and I wanna be your boss
Don’t say I never warned you when your train gets lost
