David & Loren Laue - Gotta Be a Train Lyrics

My baby done left, she left on a plane
But I didn't mind, she should'a took a train
Gotta be a train when you're saying goodbye
Somethin' 'bout an old caboose puts a tear in your eye

Can't take a bus, ya can't drive a car
You can't ride a bike when you're going that far
Gotta be a train when you're running away
Leaving all your blues behind for a sunny day

Blue go away, blue go away
Wah, go away

Now some climb aboard for the sheer delight
While some stow away to avoid the fight
With the railroad bull keeping watch or' the night
For the bo's hiding on the train

I'll ride in the front, I'll ride on the back
Don't matter to me as long as I'm on this track
Gotta be a train to lose the ball and chain
Somethin' 'bout the locomotion turns my crazy sane
Somethin' 'bout this locomotion turns my crazy sane
