Bobby Bare - I`ve Got a Thing About Trains слова песни
(Jack Clement)
I get a sad kind of feeling
When I see a passenger train
In this fast movin` world we live in
Nobody rides them much these days.
Oh, maybe I`m just sentimental
`Cause I know that things have to change
But I still like to go for a train ride
`Cause I`ve got a thing about trains.
Train, train, train
You`re out of place these days
But you`ve had your days of glory
Train, train, train.
--- Instrumental ---
Train they say you`re too slow for travelin`
But I`m gonna miss you some day
When my little boy says daddy
What was it like to ride a train?
I`ll say it was a good way to travel
When things didn`t move quite so fast
And I`m sorry that you can`t ride one
But trains are the thing of the past.
Train, train, train,
You`re fading from the scene
But I`m gonna mourn your passing
Train, train, train.
--- Instrumental ---
So if you`re tired of people and buildings
Weary of worry and strain
Then you ought to go on a train ride
And look out the window at things.
Go for a ride down to Memphis
The night train is still right on time
But I read in the papers this mornin`
Next week they`re gonna take it off the line.
Train, train, train
Blow your whistle proudly and loud
As you roll to your place in hist`ry
Train, train, train.
I`ve got a thing about trains...

(Narrative by Bobby spoken after song:
(He`ll fly till he finds that old gang of mine)
They call me a city boy and that`s right I`m from New York the big city
It didn`t seem so big to me though before I went into the service
The city to me was mostly the neighborhood where I grew up
And the kids I grew up with.
