I remember those young and those restless years
Time would crawl instead of fly
I would lay awake alone in A WHISTLE-DROPPIN' TONE
As that night-time train rolled by
chorus:
I never did like that train
Never did like that train
I could not sleep till it was long gone away
No, I never did like that train
I remember MY REST WAS DEEP DOWN in my breast
When I heard that silent song
Said "Forget your family
Come along, come along, come along".
Well, maybe you felt that wanderlust
In the darkness at the edge of the day
I never forgot that night train's call
I remember like it was yesterday
Time would crawl instead of fly
I would lay awake alone in A WHISTLE-DROPPIN' TONE
As that night-time train rolled by
chorus:
I never did like that train
Never did like that train
I could not sleep till it was long gone away
No, I never did like that train
I remember MY REST WAS DEEP DOWN in my breast
When I heard that silent song
Said "Forget your family
Come along, come along, come along".
Well, maybe you felt that wanderlust
In the darkness at the edge of the day
I never forgot that night train's call
I remember like it was yesterday
