Everytime I hear the lonesome whistle whine
From a lonesome locomotive, comin down the line
It carries me back 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 simple way of life is what it really means to me
When we weren`t so dependent on money to be free
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
Repeat Chorus twice
But there you go again train travelin
There you go again train travelin
