Train Song [Big Time] lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I broke down in East St. Louis
On the Kansas City line
And I drunk up all of my money
That I borrowed every time
And I fell down at the Derby
The night's as black as a crow
It was a train that took me away from here
But a train can't bring me home

[Verse 2]
What made my dreams so hollow
Was standing at the depot
With a steeple full of swallows
That could never ring the bell
And I've come ten thousand miles away
With not one thing to show
Well it was a train that took me away from here
But a train can't take me home

[Verse 3]
I remember when I left
Without bothering to pack
You know I up and left
With just the clothes I had on my back
Now I'm so sorry for what I've done
And I'm out here on my own
Well it was a train that took me away from here
But a train can't bring me home
It was a train that took me away from here
But a train can't bring me home
