|
They were still bagging grain when the train pulled in
|
He was a hardworkin' fella with a knockabout grin
|
And the boss' daughter took a shine to him
|
And they were off like a runaway train
|
Close the line, put the signals down
|
No flag or whistle going to stop them now
|
And that loco's doing 'bout the speed of sound
|
They were off like a runaway train...
|
Chorus... Oooo
|
Down the ribbon of steel they rolled
|
They were thundering out of control
|
Oooo
|
Got a lot to explain
|
A full head of steam
|
And a love like a runaway train
|
Chorus...
|
They can't go back but they just don't care
|
She's getting the feeling for the wind in her hair
|
And it's destination: Anywhere
|
They were off like a runaway train...
|
Chorus...
|
