lyrics

LONESOME TRAIN





I don’t know what I’m gonna do when that day comes

It won’t be long till my time is at hand

I’ve made mistakes, I know I can’t erase them

But I’ve made more than any ordinary man



I’ve cheated and swindled my sisters and brother

I’ll tell the truth now, for once I won’t lie

I swear I always loved my father and mother

Though I could never say that and look them in the eye



I’m riding on a Lonesome Train – I’m riding on a lonesome track

I’m riding on a Lonesome Train and I ain’t coming back



I spent my life a slave to temptation

I know I’ll owe more than I can afford

I spend my nights now down at the railway station

Waiting on that man to yell All Aboard



And when I hear the shout that starts my heart yearning

And I step onto that long black train

I know that I ain’t gonna worry bout returning

I know it’s only just going one way



I’m riding on a Lonesome Train – I’m riding on a lonesome track

I’m riding on a Lonesome Train and I ain’t coming back



And as I sat there I started to wonder

Would it really be like people say

With someone waiting when I get off up yonder

To read a list off of my life’s mistakes



And if that’s true then I know I’m in trouble

And I am only just about to learn pain

I’d trade everything I’ve stolen and double

If I could only just get off this train



I’m riding on a Lonesome Train – I’m riding on a lonesome track

I’m riding on a Lonesome Train and I ain’t coming back
