standing on the bridge, peeking through the crack
see the golden arrow go rollin' down the track
must've been the fastest train I've ever seen
eyes wide open as I watch that gold machine

see the train comin' and I heard the whistle blow
like a flash of' lightnin', the arrow shinin' gold
felt so excited, left my troubles way behind
see the golden arrow go rollin' down the line

rollin', rollin' in the rain (3x)
will I ever ride that train

dark clouds rollin', it's another rainy day
early in the morning, I have to get away
standing on the bridge and I'm feelin' kinda sad
line's all deserted and I feel so bad

rollin', rollin' in the rain (3x)
will I ever ride that train

yea-ee-yeah
rollin', rollin' in the rain (3x)
will I ever ride that train

rollin', rollin' in the rain (3x)
will I ever ride that train

yeah
whoo
gotta keep rollin'
