lonesome train

Social Distortion

Well I hear that choo choo coming
Coming down those railroad tracks
Itââ?¬â?¢s firebox is smoking, itââ?¬â?¢s engine is big and black
Itââ?¬â?¢s a heading for the station, when it stops at the station door
Iââ?¬â?¢m gonna board that old black choo choo
And I wonââ?¬â?¢t be back no more

Well, it pulls a lot of coaches
That train is mighty long
Some up here with gayety of laughter and song
But know which choo choo that youââ?¬â?¢re riding
Because itââ?¬â?¢s mighty dark and cold
And youââ?¬â?¢ll be happy when Iââ?¬â?¢m crying as the winds begin to blow

Outside the rain is falling
Like great big lonely tears
And the lightning that is flashing
And it stills all of my fears
I heard a porter holler, ââ?¬Å?Check your baggage please!ââ?¬
But all that Iââ?¬â?¢ve got with me are my memories
