Just Like This Train |
| I’m always running behind the time |
| Just like this train |
| Shaking into town |
| With the brakes complaining |
| I used to count lovers like railroad cars |
| I counted them on my side |
| Lately I don’t count on nothing |
| I just let things slide |
| The station master’s shuffling cards |
| Boxcars are banging in the yards |
| Jealous Iovin’Il make you crazy |
| If you can’t find your goodness |
| 'Cause you lost your heart |
| I went looking for a cause |
| Or a strong cat without claws |
| Or any reason to resume |
| And I found this empty seat |
| In this crowded waiting room |
| (Everybody waiting) |
| Old man sleeping on his bags |
| Women with that teased up kind of hair |
| Kids with the jitters in their legs |
| And those wide, wide open stares |
| And the kids got cokes and chocolate bars |
| There’s a thin man smoking a fat cigar |
| Jealous lovin’lI make you crazy |
| If you can’t find your goodness |
| 'Cause you’ve lost your heart |
| What are you going to do now |
| You’ve got no one |
| To give your love too… |
| Well I’ve got this berth and this roll down blind |
| I’ve got this fold up sink |
| And these rocks and these cactus going by And a bottle of German wine to drink |
| Settle down into the clickety cIack |
| With the clouds and the stars to read |
| Dreaming of the pleasure I’m going to have |
| Watching your hairline recede |
| (My vain darling) |
| Watching your hair and clouds and stars |
| I’m rocking away in a sleeping car |
| This jealous lovin’s bound to make me Crazy |
| I can’t find my goodness |
| I lost my heart |
| Oh sour grapes |
| Because I lost my heart |
