Blackfoot - Take a Train lyrics

rate me

Bought a ticket in a transit station

Headed southbound for home

To take a look at my dear Mom and Papa

Show them their simple son

Take a listen...

Didn't know what I was headed back home for

All I knew it was time

When the train it pulled into the station

Far from a maddening crowd

Station master took out his gold locket

Just to check his time

People pushing to pick up their baggage

To take another line

Just take a train now

Be on time if you want to stay

You've got to take a train now, Mama

You know it's the only way

So now, if you get to wanna see your home, now

Just you get down on your knees

Listen to the birds that do surround you

Singing their sweet harmony

Buy your ticket from a Station Master

One-way ticket for home

Get along and kiss your troubles good-bye, now

It's time to get on board

Just take a train now

Be on time if you want to stay

You've got to take a train now, Mama

You know it's the only way
