Old Train
This song was first released on the All Aboard! album. It is the only album it has been released on.
Old Train, I can hear your whistle blow
And I want to be jumping on again
Old Train, I've been everywhere you go
And I know what lies beyond each bend
Old Train, each time you pass
Youâre older than the last
And it seems Iâm too old for running
I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails
They cry with every mile
And I think Iâll stay awhile
Old Train, I grow weary at the miles
And I miss the freedom that was mine
Old Train, just to think about those times
Iâll smile when youâre highballing by
Old Train, each time you pass
Youâre older than the last
And It seems Iâm too old for running
I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails
They cry with every mile
And I think Iâll stay awhile
