Train of Life

(Roger Miller)



I sit alone at my table

And watch all the others have fun

And I'm tired of sittin' on the side of track

A watchin' the mainline run.



I'm tired of havin' no future

Just livin' on things that I've done

And I'm tired of sittin' on the side of track

A watchin' the mainline run.

Train, train don't leave me, oh, train of life.



I got no one to call me their darling

to hug me and call me their hon

And I'm tired of sittin' on the side of track

Just a watchin' the mainline run.



I'm tired of havin' no future

Just livin' on things that I've done

And I'm tired of sittin' on the side of track

A watchin' the mainline run.

Train, train, don't leave me, oh, train of life...
