This train hugs the track
It’s made it all the way to hell and back
This train’s gone so far
You’re never really quite sure where you are
This train, forged in hope
With an engine running true
The one thing that remains
Take it, ladies (This train)
This train keeps rolling on
Through so many riders come and gone
Yeah, this train (This train)
Yeah, just when you think it might be done
A new adventure’s just begun
On this train (This train)
From all the pressure that you’re under
On a ride fueled with fame
I can’t take the kind of life
Where every day’s the same
Oh, sometimes late at night
I wonder if I made the right decision
Then I always tell myself
No way I’d follow someone else’s vision
When I was a young boy, way down South
I used to hop the train by my momma’s house, yeah
It was there and then I began to know
That there wasn’t anywhere I could not go
On this train (This train)
So, when you feel your mind
Is always mired in confusion
When those in charge would keep us
The one thing that remains
