Artist/Band: The Magnetic Fields
Lyrics for Song: Born On A Train
Lyrics for Album: The Charm Of The Highway Strip [1994]



Some roads are only seen at night.

Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs.

But some nights the neon gas gets free-

Turns into walking dead like me.



And I've been makin' promises I know I'll never keep.

One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.

I have to go when the whistle blows-

The whistle knows my name.

Baby, I was born on a train.



I know that you were never young,

And I know you probably won't get old.

But honey, nobody's gonna hurt you anymore.

And nobody's gonna make you wanna die.



But I've been makin' promises I know I'll never keep.

One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.

I have to go when the whistle blows-

The whistle knows my name.

Baby, I was born on a train.



I'll go one cold and gray morning.

And you won't remember anything.

But some people don't believe in time.

And some of us don't believe in life.



But I've been makin' promises I know I'll never keep.

One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.

I have to go when the whistle blows-

The whistle knows my name.

Baby, I was born on a train...



Baby, I was born on a train...
