Finally comin' up
Finally comin' up for some air
Finally comin' up

[Chorus]
Now I gotta go court the conductor
And I gotta bleed gold on the track

Ho-hold...ho-hold...ho-hold

For you I'd jump in front of a train, I'd lay in front of a bus
For you I'd jump in front of a train, forever my companion (Ah!)
