Night Train

歌詞

I've been hanging around this station long enough to know Where the brakeman disappears when the whistle blows And who's gonna make it out all right when the final night train shows Ah babe, it's true I've seen a lot of women here, waiting just like you Hear the fireman start singing the same time every day The same song about his life and his well planned getaway And it's a shame to hear such a pretty voice with not one thing to say Ah babe, it's true You would have loved him back in time, if he'd only sung for you Moonlight in the water tower always shines so cold In the shadow of the pay phone, the saints are getting bold And it don't matter to them now, if it's real or just fool's gold Ah, babe, it's true I heard all the saints tonight talking only of you [Listen deep into the night, girl, can you hear the whistle blow? Looks like you're gonna make it out alright, But there's one thing you must know The only ones who can help you now, are the ones who must stay here when you go Ah babe, it's true I've seen a lot of women here, smiling just like you And there are some saints still in hiding by the river in the reeds And they're turning down every train that don't feel the right speed Sing them this song when you pass by, it'll be your last good deed Ah babe, it's true The saints are down every line waiting just for you
