There's a train on a track Painted silver, blue and black Heading to Ma**achusetts And then it's coming back And it's entertaining by New Haven Once you've had yourself a drink or two, ooh ooh All alone on the Acela Tell me baby, where the hell are you? (Acela) Ooh ooh (Acela) There's a girl on the train Leaning on a window pane Reading People Magazine Just to help turn off her brain And I swear I caught her staring at me Maybe I've been staring at her too, ooh ooh Shot to hell on the Acela Just as well, there's nothing else to do (Acela) Ooh ooh (Acela) When they called "All aboard" You were nowhere to be found Though you swore you were sure You'd come with me out of town And I looked in all the stars I looked in Hudson News Searched for any sign of you But you had not left any clues I was so confused What was I supposed to do? Now the world is a blur And the engine starts to purr And we're flying through Road Island The conductor calls me "Sir, for your information it's a station at about 11:22", ooh ooh Got to get the next Acela Got to make my way back home too Got to get the next Acela Got to get myself back home to you (Acela, Acela)
