Artist/Band: Arlo Guthrie
Lyrics for Song: Last Train
Lyrics for Album: Last Of The Brooklyn Cowboys [2005]



I wanna hop on the last train in the station

Won't need to get yourself prepared

When you're on that last train for glory

You'll know, you're reasonably there



Maybe you ain't walked on any highway

You've just been flyin' in the air

But if you're on that last train to glory

You'll know, you must've paid your fare



Maybe you've been liyin' down in the jailhouse

Maybe you're hungry and poor

Maybe your ticket on the last train to glory

Is the stranger who is sleeping on your floor



I ain't a man of constant sorrow

I ain't seen trouble all day long

We are only passengers on the last train to glory

That will soon be long, long gone



I wanna hop on the last train in the station

Won't need to get yourself prepared

When you're on that last train to glory

You'll know, you're reasonably there
