I remember when we were kids

Takin' chances, all the crazy things we did

We'd race our bikes beside the railroad tracks

And chase that train like it was never comin' back

Well I'm still chasin' that train

Still chasin' that train...

One by one, my friends all settled down

Raisin' families with a house in town

And though they laugh when we recall old times

They look at me with disbelieving eyes

Cause I'm still chasin' that train...

Well, who'd have guessed that I would play this part

Nothin's cured me of a restless heart

Forever runnin' in the rain

Still chasin' that train

Twenty years have disappeared somehow

The tracks are overgrown and rusted now

But in my mind I still can hear the wail

And in my heart I know when all else fails

I will be still chasin' that train

Still chasin' that train
