Train -

There isn’t a word for what’s happening

Things all come in at once

And the sky opened up and swallowed the world hole

Till it’s tired and heavy and full

And I’m not who I thought I would be

Who I thought I’d become

I get up for my work in the morning air and

Say goodbye to the night when the sun

Oh my family do love me

I’ve tested them well over time

I’m in no ways a saint my bed isn’t made

And life is as hard as a cry

Now my sister is on the phone with me, long distance

Telling me I might be the youngest but I’m not an old at young

And I’m amable and I should know

That I should take care if I do go

That I’m not the little boy I was

Life don’t go by faster if you run

But still that train’s gonna come

What in the word are you doing

Counting all your fingers and thumbs

Papa left here yesterday morning

You can wait but he’s not gonnna come

And as land is a drizzle upon playground

I’m not sure which side to be on

I’ve lost enough along the way

But it’s made me the man I’ve become

Now my sister is on the phone with me, long distance

Telling me I might be the youngest but I’m not an old at young

And I’m amable and I should know

That I should take care if I do go

That I’m not a little boy I was

Life don’t go by faster if you run

But still that train’s gonna come

What in the world are you doing

Counting all your fingers and thumbs

Papa left here yesterday morning

You can wait but he’s not gonna come
