Whitesnake - God Sleeps In A Caboose lyrics

Hear that train rollin' down the track Pa**in' by this old shack Whistle blow and it blow again Just a lonely sound comin' through the wind And on those tracks, in an old boxcar My mind is racin' and a-travellin' far Far away Just ridin' on that train Big boss man, he work me awfully hard Liftin' freight out in his railroad yard But hungry kids need clothes and shoes And moms and dads need their pills and booze Pills and booze Just ridin' on that train Now maybe one day I'll climb up inside And in that old boxcar, I will ride Ride away I'll be ridin' on that train Now, can you hear me, Mister Engineer? It's not my place to push or interfere On your train I'm ridin' on your train This world is old and this world is mad Some people only missin' what they never had On your train I'm ridin' on that train Hear a drop of rain hit the windowsill Thunder rolls up behind the hill But tonight alone I got no sleep I've found I can hear that clock tickin' my seconds down Seconds down Ridin' on that train And if there's one thing people know is true Everybody here end up leaving you On that train Just ridin' on that train And over the hill where the full moon shine The only thing left is love you leave behind On that train I'm ridin' on that train
