Well I broke down in St. Louis On the Kansas city line And I drunk up all my money That I borrowed every time And I fell down at the derby And the nights black as a crow There was a train that took me away from here But a train can?t bring me home What made my dreams so hallow Was standing at the depot With a steeple full of swallows That can never ring the bell And I come 10,000 miles away With not one thing to sow Must have been a train that took me away from here But a train can?t bring me home Well I remember when I lived With out bothering the past You know I?ve been left with Just the clothes out on my back Now I?m sorry for what I?ve done And I?m out here on my own Well it was a train that took me away from you But a train can?t bring me home But it was a train that took me away from you And a train can?t bring me? home
