Old Train

This song was first released on the All Aboard! album. It is the only album it has been released on.

Old Train, I can hear your whistle blow

And I want to be jumping on again

Old Train, I've been everywhere you go

And I know what lies beyond each bend

Old Train, each time you pass

You¡¯re older than the last

And it seems I¡¯m too old for running

I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails

They cry with every mile

And I think I¡¯ll stay awhile

Old Train, I grow weary at the miles

And I miss the freedom that was mine

Old Train, just to think about those times

I¡¯ll smile when you¡¯re highballing by

Old Train, each time you pass

You¡¯re older than the last

And It seems I¡¯m too old for running

I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails

They cry with every mile

And I think I¡¯ll stay awhile
