Last Train Home - Last Train Home lyrics

I'm sitting on the last seat of the last car Of the last train to leave the station I left my mystery at home I'm getting off my double shift, my pockets light from lousy tips Hate to ride the subway home alone Couple up in front of me don't care that I'm here At the next stop they get off with her tongue in his ear On the last train home The last train home I've got a plan for getting out I've got business propositions I can't wait on tables my whole life Made enough tonight for a one-way fare back to Pennsylvania Where my folks say they'll put me up awhile At least until I'm back on my feet And then things will change I'm on the last train home The last train home I'm on the last train home All I used to follow has gone west I've got holes in my shirt, and I never seem to rest But I don't ever wonder why, it's a refuge for awhile Just to play my hand It's already my stop, it's a half block from my front door And the tracks roll by my window They roll along the same right of way that holds the railroad The one that will carry me away In fifteen days, I'll roll out of here I'll look up and see my window and wave goodbye From the last train home The last train home I'm on the last train home The last train home
