I am on my way on a train
Steaming along in the rain
From the life I lived before.
I have a tear in my eye
Sometimes it's easy to cry
Though I'm not a child anymore.
Can't stop the train from a rollin
Or make the wheels turn slow
You know I had to go.
Can't stop the train from a rollin
And neither snow or rain
Can get me back again.
I am on the run from my home
Somehow I'll make it alone
If I'm strong enough today.
You know I had to go along, oh
Pray for me while I am all gone
Think of me sometime anyway.
Can't stop the train from a rollin
Or make the wheels turn slow
You know I had to go.
Can't stop the train from a rollin
And neither snow or rain
Can get me back again.-
