It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry Lyrics - Al Kooper

Well, I ride on a mailtrain, baby 

Can't buy a thrill 

Well, I've been up all night, baby 

Leanin' on the windowsill 

Well, if I die 

On top of the hill 

And if I don't make it 

You know my baby will 

Don't the moon look good, mama 

Shinin' through the trees? 

Don't the brakeman look good, mama 

Flagging down the "Double E?" 

Don't the sun look good 

Goin' down over the sea? 

Don't my gal look fine 

When she's comin' after me?

Now the wintertime is coming 

The windows are filled with frost 

I went to tell everybody 

But I could not get across 

Well, I wanna be your lover, baby 

I don't wanna be your boss 

Don't say I never warned you 

When your train gets lost
