Born On A Train

[Magnetic Fields cover]



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 going to make you want to die



But I've been making promises I know I'll never keep



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



I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name



Baby, I was born on a train.



Some roads you only seen at night



Ghost roads nothing but neon signs.



But some nights the neon gas gets free



And turns into walking dead like me



But I've been making promises I know I'll never keep



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



I'll have to go when the whistle blows, the whistle knows my name



Baby, I was born on a train.



I called one morning cold and grey,



You won't remember anything



Some of us don't believe in time,



And some of us don't believe in life



But I've been making promises I know I'll never keep



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



I'll 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



Baby, I was born on a train



Baby, I was born on a train



Baby, I was born on a train
