And over in the teacher's home she waited by the phone
|
For calls which never rang, and people who never sang
|
Train man rambled dusty into town and made his daily round
|
Train man and he comes in the night
|
brings her no love but he's right
|
Yes he's right
|
Through fog and misty morning dew, she'd seen his oily face
|
and he had touched her heart, taken it apart
|
Though he never stopped to speak a word his voice was all she heard
|
Train man and he comes in the night
|
brings her no love but he's right
|
Yes he's right
|
Little girl you're a pretty little girl
|
Won't you come with me a while
|
Little girl in your frilly little world
|
Won't you give me your sweet smile
|
|
If you come tonight bring someone
|
If you come tonight bring someone
|
Don't come alone
|
If you come alone don't come
|
Don't come
|
Don't come
|
|
Yes i know he's right
|
Yes i know he's right
|
oh I know he's right
|
|
She held his hand and whispered soft
|
I love you train man
|
He just grumbled like engine as it rumbles
|
And said someday
|
Train man and he knows something's wrong and he's right
|
Oh yes he's right
|
