Well I feel just like a freight train baby,
|
running out of steam.
|
I wanna go on down to New York town,
|
but I'm stuck in between.
|
And I could stay on here at home alone
|
and have myself to thank,
|
But I just made a billion dollars
|
and I wanna put it in the bank,
|
So if you call...
|
we could go to town.
|
Well dear mom,
|
if you could see me now here underneath the lights
|
I gotta keep 'em on from dusk to dawn
|
and everything's alright.
|
I met a girl with autumn in her eyes
|
and summer in the way
|
She makes me feel
|
like I was only born today or yesterday,
|
And if she calls...
|
we could go to town.
|
But everybody here
|
hates everything I say,
|
and girl I just don't know
|
if I can last another day.
|
So I guess I'm going back,
|
back where I belong,
|
I hope you come along
|
before I get back on that train that takes me...
|
home from New York City
|
to the things I left behind
|
And 'though I ain't got no money girl
|
, I'll always have the time.
|
But I wish that you would hurry,
|
I hope you get here soon
|
'cause I just sold the sky to the sun
|
so I could buy for you the moon.
|
And if you call...
|
we could go to town. So if you call...
|
yeah, if you call...
|
girl, if you call...
|
we could go to town.
