I'm going on a night train
It's only been a light rain and the darkened sky and the starry night
I'm humming on a cold train
I'm singing ‘bout the Wreck of the Old 97
And I'm walking through the city
I tell my story to the rain
And I won't come back no matter what you say
I'm feeling no pain
Don't care if I ever see your face again
And I won't come back no matter what you say
I'm traveling on the Northern Line
Got no money but I got a lot of time to spare
And I'm walking through the city
Tell my secret to the sky
And I won't come back no matter what you say
I'm going on a night train
It's only been a light rain and the darkened sky and the starry night
I'm humming on a cold train
I'm singing ‘bout the Wreck of the Old 97
I'm feeling no pain
Don't care if I ever see your face again
