John Fogerty - Big Train lyrics

rate me

When I was young, I spent my summer days playin' on the track.<br />

The sound of the wheels rollin' on the steel took me out, took me back.<br />

<br />

Chorus:<br />

Big train from memphis, big train from memphis,<br />

Now it's gone gone gone, gone gone gone.<br />

<br />

Like no one before, he let out a roar, and I just had to tag along.<br />

Each night I went to bed with the sound in my head, and the dream was a song.<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

<br />

Well I've rode 'em in and back out again - you know what they say about trains;<br />

But I'm tellin' you when that memphis train came through,<br />

This ol' world was not the same.<br />

<br />

Chorus
