Adam Hood - I Took a Train lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

When she caught romantic fever, I knew it was time to leave

I took a train, I took a train

Carried nothing but a jacket, my guitar and a suitcase

Full of pain, I took a train

(Chorus)

I got on in downtown Memphis, crossed the mighty Mississippi

And through Arkansas was headin' for the plains

I wasn't into walking in the rain

I took a train

(Verse 2)

When I heard that whistle blowin' I knew that I wasn't

Gonna be the same, I took a train

By the time I got to Denver, I was beyond remembering

Her name, I took a train

(Chorus)

Through the grumblin' and the shaken

I knew my heart was breakin'

Well, I couldn't stop to call her to explain

I was too far gone to feel the flame, I took a train

(Bridge)

Oh, oh oh

I knew this day would come

And I curved to get it done

In a Chevy or a Ford

(Chorus)

I got on in downtown Memphis, crossed the mighty Mississippi

And through Arkansas was headin' for the plains

I wasn't into walking in the rain

I took a train
