Railroad

Status Quo · Complete Pye Collection [2004]

Railroad, she left me standing on the line

Railroad, she's really leaving me this time

Leaving on the midnight train

Leaving, never gonna come back again



I'm living alone, a place of my own

A bed, a chair and one back door

Something went wrong with the words to my song

And now she ain't around no more

Something she said as she lay on my bed

Six or seven hours ago

I guess I was wrong

I really didn't think she would go.



Railroad, she left me standing on the line

Railroad, she's really leaving me this time

Leaving on the midnight train

Leaving, never gonna come back again



Her face was always smiling, guess she was always laughing at me

I said her face was always smiling, guess she was always laughing at me

If I'd realised I'd be less surprised to find

That she was laughing at me
