Train Song (2023 Remaster)

[Verse 1]
I broke down in East St. Louis, the Kansas City line
Drunk up all of my money that I borrowed every time
And I fell down at the Derby, the night's as black as a crow
It was a train that took me away from here, but a train can't bring me home

[Verse 2]
What made my dreams so hollow was standing at the depot
With a steeple full of swallows that could never ring the bell
And I've come ten thousand miles away, not one thing to show
It was a train that took me away from here, but a train can't bring me home

[Verse 3]
I remember when I left without bothering to pack
Don't you know I'vе left with just the clothes I had on my back
Now I'm so sorry for what I'vе done and I'm out here on my own
It was a train that took me away from here, but a train can't bring me home

[Outro]
It was a train that took me away from here, but a train can't bring me home
